How to create a formula to calculate a sum of cells from a date ra

[RayRay]

I want to create a sum of hours worked (Column B) to a date range (Column B)
and report it in another cell.

A B
1 Date OT Hrs
2 1/3/08 0.5
3 1/5/08 1.25
4 2/1/08 3.0

So when I create the formula it would tell me that I worked 1.75Hrs in Jan

=SUMIF(A:A,">=2008-01-01",B:B)-SUMIF(A:A,">=2008-02-01",B:B)

It did not work. It adds the date.

=SUMIF(A:A,">=2008-01-01",B:B)-SUMIF(A:A,">=2008-02-01",B:B)

I stated it incorrectly: (Should have said)

I want to create a sum of hours worked (Column B) related to the dates or
range of dates provided (Column A) and report those hours in another cell.

so in the original example, when I create the formula it would tell me that
I worked 1.75Hrs in Jan

Which is exactly what my formula does.
