Thank you Bob. Perhaps I should have been more clear, though.

I am looking to compute multiple averages of data that are spaced between
the text cells. For example, if I have 25 text cells randomly spaced in the
column, I am looking to compute the average of each of the 26 separated
numeric ranges. I know how to use the average function to do this for each
individual chunk, but would like to learn how to have excel recognize the
text cells and average the numbers between them.

Thanks again!

Hi all,
I have a column of numerical data in which there are randomly spaced text
boxes (ie different spacing between text entries). I am looking for a way

to
average cells between the text boxes. I can do this individually by
selecting cell ranges, however I am interested to know if anyone has a way

to
do this automatically (or at least more quickly!). Any thoughts would be
appreciated!
Thanks,
Brad Hubeny
