Count IF w/ Multiple Criteria
What should be so simple is turning into a nightmare...
I have a "Source" Sheet.
In that Source Sheet, I have multiple columns. (example below).
What I want is a COUNT of how many rows have "Fred" in the Name column AND "Answered" in the Result column. - so looking at my screenshot, my result here would be 2.
I have tried every COUNTIF formula that I could find, and I either get an erroneous result or an error.
Here is an example of one I tried, I get an #unparseable error, however I got the format from this site.
=COUNTIFS([Name]:[Name], "Fred", [Result]:[Result], “Answered")
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

You have a weird quotation mark in front of Answered
-
=COUNTIFS(Name:Name, "Fred", Result:Result, "Answered")

I am doing something similar however for my name column it is a dropdown multi select column and it seems it only counts where they name is selected by itself. Does anyone know how to remedy this? Here is the formula for example:
=COUNTIFS({Training Project Task List Range 3}, "Aubrey Campbell", {Late Check}, @cell = "Late")

I fixed the quote.. still not working...
Tried SmartSheetUser 99's format... still not working...
I will open a support request.
Thanks for the recommendations!

Got it! My format was actually correct, one of the values I was working with had a -. I split the text to two columns and got it to work! That's what I get for tying to do formula's on a Friday afternoon! :-)

Your formula is looking only for Aubrey Campbell by itself, what's the end game that you're looking for with this formula?

@Smartsheet User 99 I have a question on this example. How would you write the formula if they wanted to count "Answered" and "Call Forwarded" for "Fred"?
Thanks!
