As one of the pieces of logic in a formula I'm attempting, I want a count within a range (column) if the date (formatted as MM/DD/YY) falls within the year 2017. What do I need to change in the formula as shown in my screen shot?
Hi Tyler,
=COUNTIF({NEW ACE MASTER LIST Range 9}, YEAR(@cell) = 2017) will get you out of trouble.
Thanks for the reply, Chris. I've seen that function before in my research, but I still get the #UNPARSEABLE error. See my updated screenshot below according to your suggesting to see if I missed any spaces, commas, etc.
Hi Tyler. My pleasure.
Your formula looks correct. Could you please confirm that your source range inside the { } is definitely a date?
Yes, I've double-checked that the data range is for sure a date. Not only that, I made sure there are dates within 2017 for the formula to count. I'm stumped. (The error is actually #INVALID DATA TYPE. In my previous comment, I said it was #UNSPARSEABLE.)
Oh OK, that changes things. Can you also confirm that the column your formula lives in is also a date format?
I tried your suggestion of changing the formula column to a DATE type of column, but the error is #INVALID REF now (not sure why the error type keeps changing).
The invalid Ref error states that the existing range doesn't exist. I would double check your reference to the other sheet, and even recreate it to see if that solves your problem.

I have created columns that have a column type of checkbox. I want to check the box if the owner is from a certain company (which can be determined by the…
Hello, I am trying to use JOIN-COLLECT to populate a cell with a contact by pulling from another sheet. However, when I use this formula it populates the cell with the name of the contact as a text string, but does not populate the cell with the contact itself. Both the column of cells being populated and the column the…
Hello Community, I need to create a report that shows capacity by month. My sheet tracks resource allocation on projects with resource start and end dates. (We can't afford the Resource Management module so we're doing it in Core SS). I've been asked to do a "heat map" of sorts where each column is a month. For each row…
