Default #div/0 errors and blank cells

Are you answering old messages from old threads? Your last two postings seem
to be answering questions from back on May 1st and May 2nd. Is that how your
newsreader is showing them to you?

If your data is in cells A1 through AE1, 31 cells, then you could use:
=IF(ISERROR(AVERAGE(A1:AE1)),0,AVERAGE(A1:AE1))
The ISERROR function will catch any kind of error, not just division by
zero , #DIV/0.

Hi wondering if anyone can help me with this one...

Have 31 cells in a row which i want to get the average value from, some
of
these 31 cellsmay or may not have data in them. The end coloum would be
the
one working out the average value of that row of cells.

If no data is entered into any of the cells is it possible to get the
average formular not to return a #div/0 error but instead just return a 0
figure?
Obviously as soon as any data is entered the formular would work as
normal
but just want it not to return the error should no data be entered.

The average figures obtained would then be used in a graph.

sure must be a plain and simple answer to this..
