Default CountIF and changing ranges


Hi all,

I'm working on a function that tells me how many cells there are with
"Paid" in it. The problem being, they the range will change depending
on what the date is:

I reckon i'm pretty close with this:

=COUNTIF(ADDRESS(2,C35,4)&":P2",$C$20)

Whe
C20 = Paid
C35 = 6 (Don't worry about why this is 6 - Long story, but it changes
depending on the current date)

If I use the forumla bar in excel it tells me that:
ADDRESS(2,C35,4)&":P2" = "F2:P2" Which is the problem :(
Because it's giving me "F2:P2" (with the quotes) instead of just F2:P2.
I'm 99% sure this is causing it to error and not give me a result -
because it's seeing the range as text. I don't know what else to do,
can anyone suggest anything?

Thanks in advance.
