So which cell(s) show wrong results and what is the expected outcome of those cells? For example, if it is D7 then what number are you expecting to see in D7?

D7 will be around 167 as result
D6 could be around 15 as result as well.
D6 could be around 15 as result as well.
- JKPieterseJul 19, 2021Silver ContributorIf D7 is supposed to count all the TRUE values in Worksheet!$AY$8:$AY$1900 then the correct formula in D7 is:
=COUNTIF(Worksheet!$AY$8:$AY$1900,TRUE) - Ahmed_AhmedJul 19, 2021Copper ContributorI did apply the formula on D7 and seems to be what we were expecting.
Would you mind checking the other row results like: D2,D4,D5,D9,D10,D11 and D12 ? If the formula was applied correctly or not? - JKPieterseJul 19, 2021Silver ContributorThe formulas in there are not necessarily wrong, it depends on what exactly you are intending to count. Example: D4 counts all cells in column CS which contain the number 2. There is no way for me to decide whether that is the correct way to determine how many rows are about "wiring and switch". You know the business logic which determines what exactly needs to be counted.
There are some simple mistakes however. For example, many of the formula's in D do not point to the same rows as other formulas in column D. This is bad practice which you can easily avoid by converting your data on "Worksheet" to a table. See https://jkp-ads.com/Articles/Excel2007Tables.asp - Ahmed_AhmedJul 19, 2021Copper Contributorcool
