Taking Average ignoring #DIV/0! in the range...
The easiest way to handle this would be to change the formulas so they don't
return errors. For example:
=IF(ISERROR(your_formula),"",your_formula)
These will ignore the errors:
=IF(COUNT(B1:B12),SUMIF(B1:B12,"<1E100")/COUNT(B1:B12),"")
This one is an array formula** :
=IF(COUNT(B1:B12),AVERAGE(IF(ISNUMBER(B1:B12),B1:B 12)),"")
** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER). Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT
key then hit ENTER.

Currently if I use the average function for the months, it will show the
results to be "#DIV/0!".
What formula can I use such that when theres only data for 4 months, it
will
only take average of 4 months and if theres 5 months data it will only
take
average of 5 months and so on instead of showing me "#DIV/0!".
Please help. Thanks!
