Dave
You responded to my eariler posting about alternatives to using array formulas and suggested that I use Database functiosn instead.
I'm having some trouble in summarisign the data as I'd like.
To simplify: I have 3 columns of data (Date, Amount, Division). I need to be able to summarise the data in a table with months in Column A and Divisions in Columns C to G (5 division names).
This means that I have a total of 60 different criteria:
Criteria 1: date >= 01/01/2001, date <= 31/01/2001, division = Alpha
Criteria 2: date >= 01/01/2001, date <= 31/01/2001, division = Bravo
...and so on for each division for January, then repeat for dates in February, then March etc.
Any suggestions as to how I can simplify all these different criteria?
