Hi Everyone,

OK so I have sale recods in sheet1

Column J is the salespersons Name and Column R is the Date the sale was made

I need a formula in S2 that can tell me how many sales persons there are for the date in cell T2?

So cell "T2" has a date example "21/08/2017"

Now Down Column J are the salespersons names and down R are the dates.

So how can I count the number of salespersons who made a sale on date in "T2" (21/08/2017) when there are multiple entries for each sales person???

thanks

Tony
