This is likely an elementary question, but I am having a challenge to get the formula for the Count of Children when I have the formula, for example, in a column B cell and I want to count the children of column A. What am I doing wrong?
Hi Cindy,
I don't know what you are doing wrong because i can't see your formula
Here is my example. =COUNT(CHILDREN(A1))
I hope this helps you!

Thank you so much.
That worked, duh.
Now one more a little trickier:
Column "Month" is the parent. The children include names and other contact details for people who have filled out an online form to RSVP to a class.. RSVP is a column and each child has populated "Yes, No, or Maybe".
Currently my formula for the RSVP is: =COUNTIF(RSVP473:RSVP511, "Yes")
But, this requires me to constantly maintain the formula settings (e.g. rows 473 through row 511) each month as RSVP's come in.
How can I get a count of "Yes" RSVP's based on the children of Parent "Month" (row 472)
Hi again Cindy,
Happy to help!
Heres for the trickier one.
Andrée
Yay! You rock. I've dealt with that irritation for over a year. So happy!

It was my pleasure!
This really helped me too. Thanks Andree!

I am trying to get the passenger count per month per year, and I can't seem to get the formula correct. I need to add the number of passengers for each month per year. If anyone could assist me with this, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
I need to edit a large sheet that has a lot of predecessors. I need to delete one row and move another. when I make the changes the predecessors for proceeding lines are not correctly displaying the dates correctly. Need help.
