Default performing function on selected rows

Hi Mike,
One last question, is there a formula that would work that would look for
the previous month because this data is always performed on the previous
month during the first week of the current month.
Thanks for the help,
Paul

Hi,

Yes you can do that but you would need properly formatted dates

=MAX(IF(MONTH(A2:A11)=MONTH(NOW()),B2:B11))

Once again an array

That will work, I assume there isn't a way for it to find MAX, MIN etc for
current month? so I will always need to type "month" that I'm looking for?

Hi,

I've assumed that the date column is text and not a formatted date

=MAX(IF(A2:A11="January",B2:B11))
=MIN(IF(A2:A11="January",B2:B11))
=AVERAGE(IF(A2:A11="January",B2:B11))

These are array formula which must be entered with CTRL+Shift+Enter and NOT
'just enter. If you do it correctly then Excel will put curly brackets around
'the formula{}. You can't type these yourself. If you Edit the ranges
'then you must re-enter as An array
