In my Excel spreadsheet I am trying to figure out a formula to combine an
examiner's initials with a specific date in which a record was audited.

For Example, part of my spreadsheet looks something like this:

Date
Examiner Audited
ds 04/03/07
ds 04/03/07
ds 03/31/07
tc 03/31/07
tc 03/29/07
hr 04/04/07

At the bottom of my spreadsheet I want to provide a brief summary on how
many audits were made by each examiner on a specific date.

ds would have 2 on 04/03/07, I want the intials of the examiner and the date
with a count of the date.

I have a large spreasheet, this is just two columns out of many. Appreciate
any help!

Thanks Dave. I like this approach using the Pivot table. I never thought of
that. I don't want to have to type in all the dates in the formula. I was
trying to use the VLOOKUP but that wasn't working. Thanks!
 
Just a warning if those values are really dates:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100="ds"),--(B1:B100=date(2007,4,3))
(for April 3rd)
 
Thanks Dave. I tried all the suggested formulas and nothing worked. I saw
it wasn't recognizing the date as a date. I could see it was not pulling a
date entry but a strange number. Let me try =date in my formula. I'm sure
this is the problem. Thanks everyone! I appreciate all the input and
knowledge!!
