Hi Barb,

That doesn't work in the UK. You should use date independent formulae such
as

=COUNTIF(A1:A15,DATE(2005,11,21))

or

=COUNTIF(A1:A15,--"2005-11-21")

You need a UDF

Function CountDates(rng As Range)
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In rng
If IsDate(cell.Value) Then
CountDates = CountDates + 1
End If
Next cell
End Function

=CountDates(A1:A15)
