Need help with counting total number of dates that fall within a specific mon & yr

I need help to count all the dates in one column that fall in a specific month and year. I have a summary table that needs to count the occurances for each month of the year.

Dec Jan Feb
CX Complete (F) 0 0 49 32

The source data is in a separate tab under 1 column (S)

Siterra - Forecast
1/21/2013
1/21/2013
3/26/2012
2/10/2012
1/30/2012
3/23/2012

=COUNTIF('SF NetVis PostNTP'!$S:$S,

Is what I started with but can't figure out the rest....

thanks

Haseeb, thanks that helped...I was close. Also now for the next step. I have the same need to count the dates from another data column and add them up for a total. One source is the SF NetVis tab and the other is the SB Netvis tab. I tried to just add in the same range sequence to the end but its not working.

I tried the following:

=COUNTIFS('SF NetVis PostNTP'!$CS:$CS,">=12/1/2011",'SF NetVis PostNTP'!$CS:$CS,"<=12/31/2011")+('SB NetVis PostNTP'!$CS:$CS,">=12/1/2011",'SB NetVis PostNTP'!$CS:$CS,"<=12/31/2011")

=COUNTIFS('SF NetVis PostNTP'!$CS:$CS,">=12/1/2011",'SF NetVis PostNTP'!$CS:$CS,"<=12/31/2011",'SB NetVis PostNTP'!$CS:$CS,">=12/1/2011",'SB NetVis PostNTP'!$CS:$CS,"<=12/31/2011")
