Post From: S/Sheet Study - Formula returns #inval! error

We have looked into this.

1. The issue with this formula boils down to INDEX(...):INDEX(...). The colon in this context is the syntax error. This is not supported in the new spreadsheets. The other colons in the formula are valid because they are part of cell range references (X3:X1002), but a colon currently has no meaning between two values.


2. Also, the function COUNTIF was never added due to the complexity of supporting criteria text. (Same with AVERAGEIF, MAXIF, MINIF, SUMIF.)
You should be able to accomplish what that formula is doing by breaking the formula down into separate spreadsheet columns using the more basic functions. Now that 60 formula columns are supported with the spreadsheet studies, there should be no problem with this. It also may make it easier to understand the logic.
