Well, if you are looking for an error in a formula you could start by
looking at parentheses, make sure that the numbers of opening & closing
match, and that the parentheses are appropriately placed for the parameters
of the relevant functions.

Try changing =IF(ISERROR(AVERAGE(F6:F36),"n/a",AVERAGE(F6:F36)) to
=IF(ISERROR(AVERAGE(F6:F36)),"n/a",AVERAGE(F6:F36))

Thank you for your help.

I tried the formula but I'm getting the error: The formula you typed
contains an error.

I'm not sure why becuase it's not telling me what the error is.

I'm trying to complete an average for time.

The problem is I'm doing this over a 12month period so the months where
there is no data I'm getting the #DIV\0!

in each month i have a time colum at the bottom of each i have a
monthly
average colum where i want to get the average time for the month...
this is
the formula that i am using:
=IF(AVERAGE(F6:F36)=iserror,"n/a",AVERAGE(F6:F36))

I'm still getting the #DIV\0! error which in turns causes my YTD
average to
be the same.

I appreciate your help.
