I need to sum up a range of data based on multiple criteria using only the 
first number in a date string.  For example I have a range of data I have 
to sum attached to specific dates.  I need to sum the total product for the 
month and I am trying to base that criteria on the first number in the date 
line.  The LEFT function came to mind but that seems to be for text only 
and returns an error value.  I don't want to have to use a different 
formula for each date range.  I need something that is going to recognize 
that first number in the range and sum accordingly as the number of 
dates is inconsistent.
