Hi folks,

In my workbook, I have a bunch of worsheets, where I'm average all numbers
in one column. I'd like to add one more stat, to where I'd like to average
the last 5 #'s in a column. Only thing is that no column ends on the same
row, so I can't specifiy specific cells..

Need some help to develop an average formula to pick the last five entries
in a column.

TIA.

Bob
