Excel formulas giving #VALUE! error when ported to Mac

Question

I want to be able to sum up the number of cells in a range that have a non-null value in them. On a PC running XP and Excel I entered =SUM(IF(G$19:G$1034=\"\",0,1))

Answer 1

I realize that the post was mede a long time ago, but i recently and regularly have the same problem - and I always seem to forget the solution: Select the cell or range of cells that contains the array formula, press CONTROL+U to edit the formula, and then press ⌘+RETURN.
