I tried the SUMIF formula and it worked!! THANK YOU!!!

Did you enter it with ctrl + shift & enter or does any of your ranges include
a #NUM! error or are you using the whole range like A:A? My guess the last
one, if so change the range to something less like A2:A5000..

This formula should yield the same result,

=SUMIF(Name_Range,"Smith",Time_Range)/COUNTIF(Name_Range,"Smith")

also a good idea is to replace the hard coded names (Smith) with a cell
where you would put the names, that way you won't have to edit the formula
again

I get the error #NUM! when I use this formula.

What am I doing wrong?

=AVERAGE(IF(NAme_Range="Smith",Time_Range))

Sorry for reposting this...

I need a formula to figure the average in one column if for a specific
person in another. There are about 2500 entries for each sheet. I need to
know the average with time for Smith, Samsone, etc. without having to sort by
physician.
Thanks.
