Using the formula =COUNTIF(CHILDREN(), 1) in my check box column and it throws the error #1 or 0 expected.
There's an article explaining to do it this way (unless I am misunderstanding)

What should my formula be instead?
Figured it out. For anyone else experiencing the problem, use
=COUNTIF(CHILDREN(), 1) + ""
Formats the cell as a text string instead of checking for a 1 or 0 (checked off or not)
Hey tobrien3,
