Count number of unchecked boxes

To count the number of unchecked boxes I'm using the formula: =COUNTIF([% Complete]3:[% Complete]60, 0). The issue is that it is also counting blank rows. How do I get it to only count actual blank checkboxes?

  • My personal workaround was to create another checkbox column called "Header" and check that box if a row is header type row or maybe a divider. Then I hide that column.

    Then using COUNTIFS to look at the header column and the % column

    =COUNTIFS([% Complete]3:[% Complete]60, 0, Header3:Header60,0)

    Maybe there is an easier way but that's the way I've been doing it.:)

Hi @GWOOD02<\/a>,<\/p>

Try setting the criteria to 0.5 instead of 50 as you have the column set to % - right now the formula may be looking for greater than 5000% which obviously won't be found if you're using 0-100%.<\/p>

Let us know if this works or if another solution is required.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":322,"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":219,"urlcode":"sheets","name":"Sheets"},{"tagID":254,"urlcode":"formulas","name":"Formulas"},{"tagID":265,"urlcode":"reports","name":"Reports"},{"tagID":335,"urlcode":"sheet-summary","name":"Sheet Summary"},{"tagID":472,"urlcode":"cell-linking","name":"Cell linking"}]},{"discussionID":111988,"type":"question","name":"IF AND Formula Question","excerpt":"I wanted get the below formula running... but get an an #UNPARSEABLE error. =IF AND(Number@row, {Wave B (EMEA) - L4 Mapping}, CONTAINS({Wave B (EMEA) - Country x2}, \"BE\"), \"True\", \"False\") Any help would be much appreciated.","snippet":"I wanted get the below formula running... but get an an #UNPARSEABLE error. =IF AND(Number@row, {Wave B (EMEA) - L4 Mapping}, CONTAINS({Wave B (EMEA) - Country x2}, \"BE\"), \"True\",…","categoryID":322,"dateInserted":"2023-10-20T21:18:29+00:00","dateUpdated":null,"dateLastComment":"2023-10-21T08:53:03+00:00","insertUserID":164249,"insertUser":{"userID":164249,"name":"Ulrich Anderhub 1","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Ulrich%20Anderhub%201","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/defaultavatar\/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-10-21T12:48:10+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"},"updateUserID":null,"lastUserID":164249,"lastUser":{"userID":164249,"name":"Ulrich Anderhub 1","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Ulrich%20Anderhub%201","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/defaultavatar\/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-10-21T12:48:10+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"},"pinned":false,"pinLocation":null,"closed":false,"sink":false,"countComments":2,"countViews":37,"score":null,"hot":3395716292,"url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/111988\/if-and-formula-question","canonicalUrl":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/111988\/if-and-formula-question","format":"Rich","lastPost":{"discussionID":111988,"commentID":401071,"name":"Re: IF AND Formula Question","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/comment\/401071#Comment_401071","dateInserted":"2023-10-21T08:53:03+00:00","insertUserID":164249,"insertUser":{"userID":164249,"name":"Ulrich Anderhub 1","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Ulrich%20Anderhub%201","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/defaultavatar\/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-10-21T12:48:10+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"}},"breadcrumbs":[{"name":"Home","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/"},{"name":"Get Help","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/get-help"},{"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions"}],"groupID":null,"statusID":3,"attributes":{"question":{"status":"accepted","dateAccepted":"2023-10-21T08:53:11+00:00","dateAnswered":"2023-10-20T21:36:57+00:00","acceptedAnswers":[{"commentID":401046,"body":"
