I have an excel document that I created on OSX Excel 2016. I no longer have a Mac and now using Windows Excel 2019. I opened the sheet and added more content for it to calculate and everything went to 0's...

I cannot figure it out why.. I only pasted a few lines of VData below but you get the example.. Its USED to count how many times "UserName 1" showed up in Column C of VData inbetween the dates mentioned checked against Colum D of VData. The cell dates are dd/mm/yyyy and I am using US Region but I have tried to change region to NL and still doesnt work... PLEASE HELP!!

One quick question - in the Advanced section of Excel options, at the bottom, do you have any of the Lotus compatibility options checked?

Ok so why does it NOT work on my system? Is you PC region set to US standards or EU?

Do I have to press something to make it calculate?

I got it... So my COUNTIFS are asking for 31/12/2020 which of course THAT is not correct when the region is USA.. The cells are set to dd/mm/yyyy so as soon as I switch the COUNTIFS to US standards it calculates the cells correctly because it KNOWS the cell itself is dd/mm/yyyy,,, I hate myself
