Default Average to date

Hi,

I have a number of items that I track monthly costs on in rows 7 to 21. In
columns C to N are the months Jan to Dec. I would like to average the costs
to a specified month. As this month can change It is entered in Cell O6. At
present I match the month specified in O6 and add that to 66 to get the
character value of the column I am interested in. Then I use indirect to
create the reference I require the average to be done on.

vis:=AVERAGE(INDIRECT("C7:"&CHAR(MATCH(O6,C5:N5,0) +66)&"7"))

Now I want to copy this down to the 10 rows below. So that it works
correctly I will need to create references to the rows as well as the
columns. This can be done with some more indirect functions but I was hoping
that there was an easier way.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Regards.

Sean
