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.

wow,
thanks Mike!
Did that do the trick for you? Glad I could help you out.
Yes Mike, thank you for being so patient.
I'd like to thank Smartsheets for developing that patience in me. You're welcome!
Is there a trick to creating a column of unique values for each row that will not change after it is created? I cannot use Auto-ID because the row then gets copied to another sheet that utilizes Auto-ID and Smartsheet limits that. I'm stuck and ChatGPT keeps making recommendations that don't work.
I have a sheet that has all of our orders on it. I have other sheets "Gantt" for each machine. I want each machine sheet to auto populate every order that is assigned to it, when an order gets assigned to the machine. I don't want to set an automation to copy the row from the orders sheet to the machine sheet because I…
Hi Community Facing a problem many others have posted about, but haven't seen a solution yet and wondered if it had been solved. I want to be able to add a row on a resource sheet for each project resource once a project has been set to 'X' on a Projects sheet. I have tried through automations but the daisy-chain limit…
