Default Averages

Hi Max

Thanks for the formula. I was able to make it work using columns not rows.
How do I make the starting value change every 15 cells automatically? My
spreadsheet is set out like below.

TIA
Bec

Assuming the values to be averaged are running in C1 down

Put in D1:
=AVERAGE(OFFSET(C$1,ROWS($1:1)*15-15,,15))
Copy D1 down as far as required

D1 returns the average of C1:C15
D2 returns the average of C16:C30, and so on, as desired

Hi have a spreadsheet which has lines for every minute of the day

20/8/07 1900
20/8/07 1901 etc etc for a number of weeks.

How do I easily find the average of each 15 minute period without having to
copy and paste an average formula every 15 lines? and so it's in one table
(ie no gaps)

TIA
