Default Average starting with first month

Can't you just average each row, average does not include blanks as opposed
to zeros and
from your example it looks like the cells are empty

I have a large worksheet of sales data where products are down the rows and
months are across columns. I would like a formula to calculate the
average
monthly sales but only inlude those months starting with the month of
first
sale going forward. If a sale month is zero the cell is blank Example
worksheet:

Mo1 / Mo2 / Mo3 / Mo4 / Mo 5
Product 1 10 / 10 / 8 / 8 / 9 Avg = 9 (Avg includes all months)
Product 2 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 6 Avg = 6 (Avg excludes Mo 1 of
zero)
Product 3 10 / / 8 / 7 / Avg = 5 (Avg includes Mo 2 & 5 of
zero)
etc

Any ideas? Thanks, Jim.
