Need some quick help! In spread sheets the data is already entered for
2005
by months. I need a formula to average YTD data for a given month end. For
ex
if current month is April, need to average Jan-April, If cm is May, avg
Jan-Apr, if cm is June, avg Jan-May, etc. I tried an If statement but
apparently Excel won't allow that many IF's. As always, very much
appreciate
your assistance!
