Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
did you read about syntax of COUNTIFS function?
your syntax from post#1 is wrong

Important: Each additional range must have the same number of rows and columns as the criteria_range1 argument. The ranges do not have to be adjacent to each other.

and read Remarks there.

SYNTAX: =COUNTIFS(criteria_range1, criteria1, [criteria_range2, criteria2]…)

=COUNTIFS(full_extract!D:D,full_extract!G:G"1",full_extract!W3) (error: no comma)

range1: full_extract!D:D
criteria1: ?
range2: full_extract!G:G but not full_extract!G:G"1"
criteria2: "1"
what is it?: full_extract!W3

don't forget about commas

eg. =COUNTIFS(B5:D5,"=Yes",B3:D3,"=Yes")

read carefully whole description about COUNTIFS (and examples there)

Something like this?

=COUNTIFS(full_extract!D:D,full_extract!G:G,"1",full_extract!W:W,3)

Also note that you have the 1 in quotes "1", indicating that it is a text field, and the 3 without them, indicating a numeric field. Make sure you have those correct to match your data.


Edit: upon rereading your question, I'm unsure as to what you actually are asking. Are you looking to search column W for a 3, or are you looking to see if W3 contains a specific value?

would be better if you post a link to shared (use GoogleDrive, OneDrive or any similar) excel file with representative source data (desensitized) and expected result
detailed description what you want to do is very welcome
