Default Excel - Geomean - Ignoring Empty Cells

Hi,

Geomean will produce a num error if any number is <=0 so check your data.
You can post your workbook here and post the link

Hi Mike H:

Thanks for helping me out with this questions. I tried using the array
formula you recommended. It gave me the same #NUM error. I did see the curly
brackets when using control+shift+enter. I copied a small sample of the data
below. If you scroll down, you will notice that some of the formulas were
calculated but most showed up with errors. Can you make any sense of this? Is
there any way I can send you the whole data set?
