Is it possible to have an equation that determines a COUNTIF for a month? ie.
if I have the dates 12/5/2005 and 11/21/2005, it would count 1 for November,
and 2 for December. Or is even something that works to the effect of
=(COUNTIF B:B, "<9/31/2005 AND 9/1/2005" possible?

Hi fireofeve,

It looks like you're after a count for September. In that case, try:
=(COUNTIF B:B, ""&DATEVALUE("9/1/2005")-1)-(COUNTIF B:B,
""&DATEVALUE("9/31/2005"))
or
=(COUNTIF B:B, ""&DATEVALUE("8/31/2005"))-(COUNTIF B:B,
""&DATEVALUE("9/31/2005"))

Cheers

=SUMPRODUCT(--(B1:B1000<=--"2005-09-31"),--(B1:B1000=--"2005-09-01"))

or how about

=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH(B1:B1000)=9))

Note that SUMPRODUCT doesn't work with complete columns, you have to specify
a range.
