Count ifs?>

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 countifΒ formulas are not working correctly. Can anyone help me?

Can you please share the formula you are using?Β

I have tried a couple different ones
Β
=COUNTIFS([Favorite #1]1:[Favorite #2]52<bigelow: earl grey)
Β
=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.Β

Mike,
Β
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?Β
Create a new row at the top and put this in the first Cell...Β
=Countifs([Favorite #1]:[Favorite #1], "Bigelow: Earl Grey")
Does that return a count?Β

Hello Mike,
Β
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,Β
You get #blocked because one of your cells you are referencing might containΒ an error. Make sure you don't have a formula that is not working in the Favorite column.Β
