Complicated SUMIF

[Iknewthisguy]

Morning,

I'm trying to do a fairly standard sumif. My only problem is my criteria is a year, say 2007. My range is 1995-2, 1996-5, 2002-0, 2007-7, 2010-3, etc... I tried a left function but doesn't work. At least not the way I'm using it. Any ideas?

Thanks.
Chris

Hi, have you tried using
=YEAR(A1)
?

This will return the year number.
You could start from there.

year(a1) doesn't work on 1995-1.

Maybe this:

Mark,

For your example there's data in column B that I am trying to sum if the year is 2007.

Does something like...

SUMIF(ConRange,X2&"-*",SumRange)

satisfy your need?

 

[Iknewthisguy]

Will "-*" work if I'm shooting for a dynamic reference?

 

[Aladin Akyurek]

Will "-*" work if I'm shooting for a dynamic reference?

I believe it will.

By the way, X2 is meant to house a year value like 2007.
