Default SUMIF & MEDIAN with blanks & text

Did you see my last reply to your other post? I couldn't open the link.

Anyhow...

MEDIAN shouldn't have an issue delaing with blanks/deleted
cells and the formula above works fine in other cases where
there are blanks.


If:

IF(INDIRECT(VLOOKUP(Stats_Dropdown,Stats_Type_ARRA Y,3,FALSE))=$C3

=TRUE and the corresponding cell in Qualified is empty that corresponding
cell will be included in the calculation as a 0.

Like this:

x...1
x....
x...5

MEDIAN(IF(rng1="x",rng2))

The result is 1.. The empty cell is being evaluated as 0:

MEDIAN({1;0;5})

To account for that:

MEDIAN(IF((rng1="x")*(rng2<""),rng2))

I had some help putting together this formula, but it has been giving me
some
grief for some reason after it seemed to work ok to start with.....

=IF(SUMIF(INDIRECT(VLOOKUP(Stats_Dropdown,Stats_Ty pe_ARRAY,3,FALSE)),$C3,Qualified),MEDIAN(IF(INDIRE CT(VLOOKUP(Stats_Dropdown,Stats_Type_ARRAY,3,FALSE ))=$C3,Qualified)),"-")

The data it is evaluating can have text, blanks, or numbers in the range,
"Qualified." In this case, it only has numbers and blanks. MEDIAN
shouldn't
have an issue delaing with blanks/deleted cells and the formula above
works
fine in other cases where there are blanks. Any suggestions?
