find dates between in excel

[Guest]

I have 2 columns of data: one is name, the other is dates.

BOB 5/1/2007
STEVE 4/19/2007
JOHN 3/22/2007
MARY 7/21/2006
KATHY 5/4/2007

STEVE 5/13/2007


I'd like to know how many times each name shows up in the month of May (or
whatever month I'm looking for). So, if I need a "findbetween" or some other
formula, I would love some help.

Thanks all, in advance!

this will count of BOB for MAY (month 5)

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A27="BOB"),--(MONTH(B1:B27)=5))

For a specific month/year

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A27="BOB"),--(MONTH(B1:B27)=5),--YEAR(B1:B27)=2007))


You can replace "BOB" with cell containing the text "BOB"

With names in Column A, and dates in Column B, one way would be to enter a
name to count in C1, and the number of the month (Jan=1, Feb=2, ... etc.) in
C2, and try something like this:

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A50=C1)*(MONTH(B1:B50)=C2))

This first formula (for month only) works fine...but the second one (for
month & year) comes up with zeros only. What am I doing wrong? I copied
directly from here to my worksheet....

With names in Column A, and dates in Column B, one way would be to enter a

name to count in C1, and the number of the month (Jan=1, Feb=2, ... etc.)
in
C2, and try something like this:

Another possibility which is more "visual" (you will be able to see the
matching rows). Assuming the same set up above, put this formula in D1...

=A1&" - "&MONTH(B1)

and copy down to the end of your data. Then put this formula in E1...

=IF(AND(A1=C$1,MONTH(B1)=C$2),COUNTIF(D$1$10000,"="&A1&" - "&C$2),"")

(using a number larger than the number of rows of data you have for the
10000 I used) and copy down to the end of your data (or beyond if your data
can grow). Now, when you put a name in C1 and a month number in C2, each
matching row will be flagged in column 'E' with the total number of hits for
that match.

Sorry ... my typo ....

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A27="BOB"),--(MONTH(B1:B27)=5),--(YEAR(B1:B27)=2007))

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A27="BOB"),--(MONTH(B1:B27)=5),--(YEAR(B1:B27)=2007))

hi anne,
by using filters u could do this.You can find the filter option in
Data>Filter>Auto Filter. By clicking this you could find dropdowns come in
the first row.There u cold go for custom where u could give two dates and
thus could filter the range of datas to clear the filter click on the
dropdown and give all values.
