Robyn,
I copied and pasted your formula into my test bed and was able to convert it to a column formula, so I'm not sure why it not working for you. A couple of quick troubleshooting questions:
- Are you right clicking in the box with the formula? When I click other boxes in that column, I get the same grayed-out result you do.
- What is your permission level on the sheet?
Hopefully this is helpful.

Hi @Robyn M
It looks like you had the closing if parenthesis after the today function instead of at the end of the statement.
Try this: =IF([Date Closed]@row <> "", [Date Closed]@row, TODAY() - [Created Date]@row)
Also your column must be a Date column for this to work.
Hope that helps!
BRgds,
