Hi all,
I want to compare a list of dates with today's date and then do a count of those dates that are within a certain number of days from today; eg, the number of dates that are within 7 days of today's date. :)
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
This will start from today and include 7 days forward:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A14 >= TODAY()),--(A1:A14 < TODAY()+8))

If you want to include 7 days back as well:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A14 >= TODAY()-7),--(A1:A14 < TODAY()+8))


Addendum:
sorry, I forgot to explain that in my example, A1:A14 contained the ranges of cells of dates to be examined for being within the alloted period.
