Hello!
I'm trying to use this if statement:
=IF(OR([1]67:[30]67 = "R13"), "500", "")
But it's not working when I want it to check the whole row ([1]67 through [30]67) for R13. Is there another way for me to do this statement?
Thank you!!!
Well... since IF formulas don't usually check ranges what about using the Countif formula integrated into an IF statement
Try this... =IF(Countifs([1]67:[30]67, "R13") > 0, "500", "")
Also, by putting 500 in quotations you are turning the integer into a text format. If you are using that amount as a number you can remove the quotes like this.
=IF(Countifs([1]67:[30]67, "R13") > 0, 500, "")
This will count if there are any occurrences of R13 and return how many. If that number is greater than 0 then you will return 500.
Completely understand, thank you so much for your help!
You're welcome! Glad I could be of assistance.
Hi Builders, You’ve been asking versions of the same question in this community: when do I use Smart Assist, when an automation, when MCP, and when plain API code? 🤔 So we’re starting a new series, the Smartsheet Builders Series: Building with Smartsheet MCP and Agents, and the first post tackles exactly that. 📖 Smart…

Restructuring sheets with tighter dropdowns and clearer naming is key. Why? Because ambiguous column names and free-text status fields that a person reads as fine can produce inconsistent agent behaviour. It’s worth unpacking, because the reason is not that the agent is worse at reading than you are. It is that you bring…
