COUNTIFS to include cells with text

Rochelle_B

I need to create a cross-sheet formula that counts the number of entries for a month and if there is text in another column. 

I've come up with the formula below, but I get an Incorrect Argument error:

=COUNTIFS({Review Month}, =1, ISTEXT({Critical 1}))

Where am I wrong here?

Try this, just need to update formula for cross sheet. 

=COUNTIFS([Review Month]:[Review Month], =1, Critical:Critical, <>"")

=COUNTIFS({My Test Sheet2 Range 1}, =1, {My Test Sheet2 Range 2}, <>"")
