Date difference Average
Ok, I get it.
This is pretty complicated to try in a single formula so I would use a
helper column.
Assume your data is in the range A2:B12.
Enter this formula in *C3* and copy down to C12:
=IF(B3<"abc","",A3-LOOKUP(2,1/(B$2:B2="abc"),A$2:A2))
Then to get the average:
=AVERAGE(C3:C12)
