I have a lengthy spreadsheet with several columns of numerical data. Some
cells have positive numbers and others have negative numbers. My goal is to
get both a column sum and average--but only of only those cells with a
positive number--i would like to exclude the negative numbers from my
calculations.

Are there formulas that will so this for me?
