    Error Message

    I just transferred my excel (2010) files to a new computer. All is fine except on one formula that worked fine on the old computer but now gets the green error triangle. The formula is: =IF(OR(AND(J4=0,K4=0),COUNT(J4:K4)<2),"",IF(J4-K4<0,"L","W"))

    There is also a number in I4 and if I change the formula to: =IF(OR(AND(J4=0,K4=0),COUNT(I4:K4)<2),"",IF(J4-K4<0,"L","W"))
    then the little green triangle goes away. Or if I delete the number in I4 with the original formula the error message disappears. But I know the original formula is correct and don't want to start modifying the formula just to get the green error triangle to disappear. Can you help?

    Hi Tom,

    In Excel Options, you probably have Error Checking set to check for "Formulas which omit cells in a region". Open Excel Options > Formulas > un-check that rule.
