I am using the SUMIF formula and have one that is written exactly the same way as all my others. The top formula is returning a #UNPARSEABLE. The bottom formula is returning with a sum of 11 (screen shot below)
The top snip below is the column heading - this is the column that seems to be the issue. I can get this formula to work with in cells with K5 - 1st grade and 3rd grade - 12th grade. The column is formatted as a text/number field, and it is populated with numbers.
I've rewritten the formula several times and it still dies when I get to the 2nd grade - without forms piece. I may have looked at this too long, but I can see no reason this formula should be failing.
