Count the number of dates that fall within a certain month
Hi, I'm looking for a formula that counts the number of dates in a list fall within a certain month. If at all possible without intermediate steps. To be more specific, I'm wondering if there's...
In general that could be
=SUMPRODUCT( ( IFERROR( N(MONTH($B$2:$D$7)), 0) = MONTH($F2) ) * ( IFERROR( N(YEAR($B$2:$D$7)), 0) = YEAR($F2) )* ISODD( ROW($B$2:$D$7) ) )by adding one more criteria. Details depends on content, do you mean odd row within the grid, or odd row counting from the start of the range.
In column D it's dates formated as mmm/yy.
Would a pivot also work if there's multiple columns to count? I used a simplified example but in reality will be about 10 columns of dates (e.g. project 1 registration, Proj 2,...). Then I would like to have the count per month per project (ie a table with for example projects listed horizontally and then listing the applicable months in date format as rows below)
Nope, PivotTable won't work such way, at least directly. As variant that could be like
=SUMPRODUCT( --(MONTH(range)=MONTH(fromDateCell))assuming in range are dates
- Problem here could be that months can have a different year. (could e.g. be Feb 2023 and 2024 in list)
- This formula works. Thanks!
Just an advanced question: is it also possible to look only look for the dates in odd rows with the same formula?
