Counting Children Rows if marked as Active

Hello,
I am trying to list the number of projects (AKA children rows that are marked as "Active" under Active Project/Staff) in the Number of Projects column. The formula I am using where I get #unparseable is
=COUNTIF(Children([Active Project/Staff]@row ), CHILDREN([Active Project/Staff]@row = "Active"))

I think your @row is not giving the range.
I've just tried a test and here is my data and I want a count of how many Children rows = test 22
There are 6 rows with test 22 but only 5 are children
My formula is:
=COUNTIF(CHILDREN([Primary Column]:[Primary Column]), ="test 22")
and this gives a result of 5
Good luck and hope this helps

Hey Sue
I don't think that will work because I have the indentation in the Project column. That is what I am having a hard time with.

You have the range also included in the criterion position. should just be:
=COUNTIF(Children([Active Project/Staff]@row ), "Active")
