I am looking for a formula that does not count the duplicates so that it can count unchecked boxes. Does anyone know of one?
Hi,
Try this.
=COUNTIF(Checkboxes:Checkboxes; 0)
The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.
=COUNTIF(Checkboxes:Checkboxes, 0)
Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.
Did it work?
Have a fantastic week!

Hi Andrée, I'm working with the user above and what we were hoping to find was a formula to check a box if the user assigned was duplicated. For example, the second instance of my name should check the box, etc.
Hi Alison,This might give you a start:
Used for counting UNIQUE/DISTINCT values only by putting a 1 on first instance of a row value. Great for finding duplicates too. Example: If [Project Name] has 20 random rows of PlanA and 15 random rows of PlanB, you can put this formula in a helper column and when totaled, you'll get a value of 2. Important to keep the $ sign on the first row for when you auto fill down.
Ex: a form is used to collect surveys from people and some people are submitting more than once, if you want to count the unique people and not all the multiple surveys they submitted, use this formula.
IF(COUNTIF([Project Name]$1:[Project Name]@row, [Project Name]@row) <> 1, 0, 1)
Hope it helps!

Hi Alison,
Ok. I see that Kara answered. Did you get it working?

Helloe Everyone! I’m trying to reference another sheet in Smartsheet, but I’ve noticed that sometimes it loads quickly, while other times it takes a very long time to display the list. Does anyone know why this happens? Is there a way to reduce how often this issue occurs? Today, I can’t get anything to load at all. 😑
Hello - Is there a work around in a Report to list multiple sheets in an order that I choose? Sorting doesn't give me the order in which I want them to appear in the report or in a widget on a dashboard. I would like them in a specific order. Thank you.
I need to revise/expand a filter - the list of items in the filter NOT the filter name - in a dashboard I created. Is this done through the dashboard or through the main data sheet?
