How do you count Columns in Smartsheet's

MSMITH2022

Column1 + Colum2 + Colum3

I need a formula that could add totals from 3 columns = Example= Risks + Issues+

Assumptions = Total

See screenshot

Thanks for your help in advance

Jeff Reisman

=VALUE(Risks@row) + VALUE(Issues@row) + VALUE(Assumptions@row)

Thank you, Jeff! When I enter that formula I get #UNPARCEABLE

Attached is the screenshot of the values

Hi @MSMITH2022

I hope you're well and safe!

To add to Jeff's excellent advice/answer.

Try something like this.

=SUMIF([Count of Risks]@row:[Count of Dependencies]@row, <>0)

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Best,

That formula works when adding up number values or numbers stored as text. Even with values of 0 it works.

Looks like you are calculating or linking in your values from somewhere else. What are the underlying formulas like?

@Jeff Reisman

Yes, that is correct! We have these values linked from an Intake form...

However, I am excited to say Andree' formula worked 

=SUMIF([Count of Risks]@row:[Count of Dependencies]@row, <>0)

Thank you both for your help :-)
