That won't work, because I have 0s in the range. I need the average without
the days that haven't occured yet included.

use AVERAGE rather than SUM.

For example if you will have data in A1 thru A100, then
=SUM(A1:A100)/100 will calculate an average including blanks treated as zeros.
=AVERAGE(A1:A100) will calculate an average excluding blanks.

I have a running total for several store's sales numbers that they report
daily. I am trying to add a page for the entire company combined and include
an average sales month-to-date. However when I enter the formula to add all
stores I get a zero value for the dates that have yet to come. Then when I
ask for the average for the whole company, I get a number that includes those
zero values. So far I have just been extending my cell range for the average
equation to include each day as it occurs and not the zeros, but I would like
to just pull the infomation from my daily reports and do the company total on
its own. Any way around this?
