Hi Lapo Zanus

SUMPRODUCT will be the way to go, as SUMIF/SUMIFS cannot accept arrays
If you need to sum by year, the SUMIF and YEAR functions cannot be use
together. Assuming your data is set up as your post

Col A = Dat
Col B = Expens
Col C = Categor

Axample

=SUMPRODUCT(--(YEAR(A1:A100)=2012),--(C1:C100="DIY"),B1:B100)

Solved for Google Spreadsheets using:
=SUM(FILTER(B:B;YEAR(A:A)=2012;C:C="DIY"))

Thanks
