Default counting occurences specific month appears

Afternoon all,
You've helped out before and I come to you again. Here's the question...

5 worksheets in my workbook, each representing a different office.
Column A for each worksheet is the date in the following format: 03-May-10.
Let's say the first sheet is named Montreal Office, the search range is
A3:A5000, what formula am I supposed to use? I think from past posts, I'm
supposed to use =sumproduct but I don't know how to incorporate my specific
sheet.

Thanks so much,
MM

Hi,

one alternative approach. using wild characters with countif function

If you want to count the occurence of MAY in sheet2,

=COUNTIF(Sheet2!A1:AZ60000,"*May*")

similarly you can use, "??May*" etc.

Thanks
Bala
