Filtering using a formulea

[Viscount]

I have got 3 columns

A = Date
B = Organisation
C = Payment

I need to discover the amount paid to each organisation
for a given month. This information will then need to be
automatically copied to a seperate worksheet.

I cannot use Autofilter / Autosum as new data will need to
be added at a later date - so I would like to beable to
insert a formulea that will automatically insert the
correct amount in the seperate spreadsheet.

I am finding the SUMIF Function useful for Columns B&C -
but it does not include the DATE limit that I need to set.

Any ideas..?
