Hi Aladin,
Yes, i got it what you were trying to say, my formula skips the count of large values (41518) and alphanumeric values don't know why. Your suggestion is working perfectly. Thank you very much
You are welcome. The C range needs to be tested differently, not as a case less thanor equal to some arbitrary date. using whole column references as you did we would have something like:
=COUNTIFS(A:A,">7/31/2013",A:A,"<=8/31/2013",C:C,"<>")
Or somewhat fancy:
=COUNTIFS(A:A,">7/31/2013",A:A,"<=8/31/2013",C:C,"<"&9.99E+307)
These formulations require you to know the end of months days, therefore risky. Hence:
=COUNTIFS(A:A,">=8/1/2013",A:A,"<="&EOMONTH("8/1/2013",0),C:C,"<"&9.99E+307)
