HAS Functions Returning 0

Syed Mohd Muhafzal

Hi Smartsheet Users,

I am struggling with the formula HAS with multiple selection drop down values and hoping I could get some guidance here.

Here, i would like to count how many "swimming" classes I have in a week.

The expected result is 3.

In the sheet summary, I have the formula written as

=COUNTIFS(Activities:Activities, HAS(Activities:Activities, "Swimming")). This gives me a "0" value result.

If I did a formula of COUNTIF without HAS, as below, it gives me a "1" value result.

=COUNTIF(Activities:Activities, "Swimming")

What did I do wrong?

Thanks

Syed

Hi all - this is good now. I needed to insert @cell in the formula and it works.

=COUNTIFS(Activities:Activities, HAS(@cell, "Swimming"))

Thanks @Andrée Starå . Feels so good when I got it worked at the end! Not so great the first few hours trying to figure it out though LOL. Hope you are doing well and keeping safe too!
