IF JOIN-COLLECT is blank returns #INVALID COLUMN VALUE
Hello!
I have written a formula to drawn data from another sheet, however, when I add "IF(ISBLANK(" to it, it breaks. I've tried doing this two different ways:
`=IF(JOIN(COLLECT({HF23 Vendors Acc/Dec}, {HF23 Vendors Email}, [Email 1]@row, {HF23 Vendors Acc/Dec}, "Yes"), ", ") = "", false, true)`
`=IF(ISBLANK(JOIN(COLLECT({HF23 Vendors Acc/Dec}, {HF23 Vendors Email}, [Email 1]@row, {HF23 Vendors Acc/Dec}, "Yes"), ", ")), false, true)`
What I can't figure out is why the Column Values are ok if I just run the nested Join/Collect, but checking if it's blank breaks it. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks! :)

Is your column type a checkbox?
To use the true/false value, the column type must be boolean, typically a checkbox column.
Or, you could try 0,1, a text/number value, instead of false, true.
