Lori,
In array formulas, + acts as OR, * acts as AND. You want AND, so use
=AVERAGE(IF((B4:B6="PW")*(C4:C6"0"),C4:C6))
And since you are looking at numbers, get rid of the quotes
=AVERAGE(IF((B4:B6="PW")*(C4:C60),C4:C6))
And you may also be looking at rounded numbers, so try
=AVERAGE(IF((B4:B6="PW")*(C4:C6=0.005),C4:C6))

Yes, if I don't use array, I receive #DIV/0!
If I do use array, it results in an average including zeros. Sigh!!!
I've just thrown together a baby spreadsheet that looks like this:
B C
4 PW 20%
5 JC 30%
6 PW 0%
=AVERAGE(IF((B4:B6="PW")+(C4:C6"0"),C4:C6))
The result is 10%, not 20%

Did you remember to make it an array (ctrl-shift-enter)?
I tested it. It works.

reducing the average I need to see.

substitute * for +
=average(if((A1:A4="Jones")*(C1:C4"0"),C1:C4))

I'm looking for a formula similar to the following, but one that

Column A represent sales rep column, and I want to see the average
sales for
all cells that have data entered in column C.
I've tried the ctrl+shift+enter, but it's still averaging with
zeros, so
something is wrong with my formula.
Thank you.
