Sumif statement in excel
I would like to do a sumif statement in excel that involves dates.
Cell A1 has a date in the format 11/15/2014. Comunm L:L has dates in the format of date and time.
If the date in greater than or equal to the date in A1 I want it to add the dates in column M.
Any ideas on how to do that?

Are you looking to Sum the values or just get a count of the number of dates that meet the criteria? If you want a count, use this:
=COUNTIF(L:L,">="&A1)

=COUNTIF(L:L,">="&A1)

Assuming you want to extract dates from column L where it is greater than A1, in column M:
=IF(INT(L2)>=$A$1,INT(L2), "")
Copy down column M as required.

@cansevin - I assume col M does not contain dates but includes values related to the date.
If not, can I ask what you are achieving by adding up dates? As Ejgil pointed out, adding together dates just gives a larger number which represents a date further into the future.

So when adding tomorrow 11/16/2014 (41959) the result is 83917 equal to the date 10/02/2129.
Is that what you want?
Please specify.
A sample worksheet would help.
