Hello,
I created a form and now have all the data i need. However My formula to give me the number of each tea that was voted for has to be accounted for. It seems that my countif formulas are not working correctly. Can anyone help me?
Can you please share the formula you are using?
I have tried a couple different ones
=COUNTIFS([Favorite #1]1:[Favorite #2]52<bigelow: earl grey)
=SUMIF([Favorite #1]1:[If I had to choose a green tea, I'd pick:]52, yamamoto: genmai, [sum_range])
=COUNTIFS([Favorite #1]1:[If I had to choose a green tea, I'd pick:]52, "yamamoto: genmai")
Try that one? It will give you a 1 for every time Yammamoto: genmai appears in the range that you suggested. Because you're looking for that text specifically you have to put it in quotes.
Mike,
No matter the name I give it or specify the value comes back at zero
Are you putting the Countif formula on the same sheet or trying to pull it from a different sheet?
Create a new row at the top and put this in the first Cell...
=Countifs([Favorite #1]:[Favorite #1], "Bigelow: Earl Grey")
Does that return a count?
Hello Mike,
thank you for helping me, but even when I followed your instructions to a T I now get #BLOCKED. very puzzling to say the least.
Hi Juan,
You get #blocked because one of your cells you are referencing might contain an error. Make sure you don't have a formula that is not working in the Favorite column.

Yes Mike, thank you for being so patient.
I'd like to thank Smartsheets for developing that patience in me. You're welcome!
I'm trying to set up a formula to calculate merit increases but, I keep getting "#UNPARSEABLE" in my cell.

Pretty sure this a Friday afternoon brain lapse…. I need to pull a value over if one of two conditions is met. I need the {Request Number} from Sheet B IF [Case Number]@row matches {Case Number} on Sheet B OR IF [Person]@row matches {Person} from Sheet B. Thanks!1
I have a sheet that tracks census of sheltered animals and I want to display that census cell in another sheet that matches the room number. I had a formula that pulled that but another admin had accidentally deleted some columns/formulas. In short, I want the data from the census cell to be pulled into another sheet with…
