Trying to pull 'Weekly' participation

[DJFANDANGO]

Good day all,

I'm trying to pull the weekly attendance of personnel, at the moment i do this manually (not clever enough to do the other bit), please see my screenshot of an example, I have on another sheet all the week numbers and dates they start/finish on.

So I get the information sent to me and I paste it into the cells A10:B18, and this gived me the 'Meetings Attended'

The only formula I'm using is =COUNTIF(B$10:B$18,"Mark"), and the same in the subsequent cells below with each "name" A2:A6

1. - How do I get it to populate the info on the 'Week 01, 02, 03...etc"?
2. - Is there a way of changing the =COUNTIF to pick up whats in the cell (A2:A6) instead of writing the name in the formula (B2:B6), as the names list changes from week to week?

Hope this is not too long winded, and you guys can help me out with probably a VERY simple solution...

I'd really appreciate any help on this one, thanks

Although I manually changed the date for it to show 'week 1', its now showing 0 (when it should show 1)

It works for me

Excel 2013/2016
	A	B	C	D	E	F	G	BN	BO	BP	BQ
1	Attended			Week 01	Week 02	Week 03
2	Mark	2		1	0	1			Week 1	31/12/2018	06/01/2019
3	John	2		0	0	1			Week 2	07/01/2019	13/01/2019
4	Billy	2		1	0	1			Week 3	14/01/2019	20/01/2019
5	oscar	1		0	0	0
6	michael	2		1	1	0
7	Total	10

Hey Fluff,

OK... Major progress, its working, but... it doesnt like coming from 2018 - 2019???

I changed the december 18 date to 01-01-2019 and it WORKED!! I dont understand why it doesnt like the 2018 date?

I've tried formatting all the date cells to DATE without any success...

What do you think?

 

[Fluff]

It should work with 2018 dates.
Easiest way to check your dates is to format the dates as General & they should become numbers like 43465 (which is 31/12/2018)

Hi,

Yeah, I tried that and the numbers appear like you say.

It's so frustrating as I got it to 'work' but it was finding data that WASNT there...??? i.e. I put in only dates till 28th Feb, but when I dragged the formula accross (removing the $ lock of course) it was still populating random numbers in each weekly block...

I'll try upload the 'actual' file in google drive or something so you can have a look?

Thanks
