Let's say you have four contiguous columns with checkboxes.


One approach would be to do this:



Add a helper column with this formula in F2, filled down:


=IF(AND(COUNTA(B2:E2)>0,COUNTIF(B2:E2,TRUE)=COUNTA(B2:E2)),1,0)


This inserts a 1 if all the checkboxes on that row are checked, otherwise a 0.


Then sum that column.


Replace the , with ; in the formula if your region uses , as a decimal separator, i.e.,


=IF(AND(COUNTA(B2:E2)>0;COUNTIF(B2:E2;TRUE)=COUNTA(B2:E2));1;0)
