# BLOCKED

Hi,

Getting this error in only on one sheet. There are about 20 sheets, but only one throwing the error.

Originally, the formula was more complicated, so I tried troubleshooting to see which function is broken. Right now, the only thing in the cell is "=COUNT([Task Name]:[Task Name])"

All that is doing is counting all cells with any data in them. [Task Name] is the primary column. This formula is in a column with text/number format.

Any ideas?

Are there any cells in the range that have an error?

Hi,

More info about the error message:

#BLOCKED

Cause

The calculation is blocked because at least one of the cells referenced by the formula has an error.

Resolution

Determine which cell referenced by this formula contains an error, which will be more descriptive of the problem.

Hope that helps!

Have a fantastic day!

Best,

Hi Guys,

The [Task Name] column had some #UNPARSABLE errors in child rows that I did not notice on initial review. Deleted those & it's working with the full formula now.

Thanks
