COUNTIF Function

Im trying to count 2 columns on a issue sheet and want to count out each specific type (Risk, Action, Issue, Decision) that are open (not counting the closed or in progress types)

I have these formuals but its not producing a result

=COUNTIF(Type1:Type50, "Risk", [Status1]:[Status50], "Open")
=COUNTIF(Type1:Type50, "Action", [Status1]:[Status50], "Open")
=COUNTIF(Type1:Type50, "Issue", [Status1]:[Status50], "Open")
=COUNTIF(Type1:Type50, "Decision", [Status1]:[Status50], "Open")

As an aside, why do I have to select a range and not just the entire column?

Any help experts? Thank you for any guidance. I'm one week into SS, loving it.

Found it!!

=COUNTIFS(Type:Type, "Risk", Status:Status, "Red")

Yep. You can reference the entire column by just using the column name between a colon. [Column Name]:[Column Name]

Good find.
