Default Can you AVERAGE IF and not null?

Hi, need some help again..

I have this project and i'm calculating the average of my students..

I have this table..

A B C

1 Mike 60 ?

2 Jorge 70 ?

3 Stan 65 ?

I would like to ask whats the formula to calculate how much more a student
needs to have for him/her to get 72? 72 is the passing score, and i would
like to ask how much he needs to reach 72. Possible score for a student to
have is between 0-100.

Thanks for you usual help.

No, a formula can't do that. If you want it to be "semi-automatic" you'd
need a macro.

You can do it with a few clicks of a mouse...

Remove the error trap from your formula and let the errors generate.
Select column E
Goto the menu EditGo ToSpecial
Select: Formulas and uncheck everything *except* Errors
OK

That will select all the cells in col E that contain errors

Goto the menu EditDelete
Select: Entire Row
OK

hi Again,

Got a question again, is there any formula that can automatically erase
or
remove an entire row if a specific cell doesnt have any value or an
error
value to it???

ex.

I have this vlookup value in column E
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A1:A5,Sheet1!B1:E100,3,FALSE)) ,"",VLOOKUP(A1:A5,Sheet1!B1:E100,3,FALSE)))

Is there anyway that i can delete or remove the entire row 4 if theres
no
returned value or an error value???

A B C D E
1 x g e e sharon
2 x as vf v sharon
3 y g h j david
4 f b a r
5 p r e f dexter

Thank you..

You can't use entire columns as range references in array formulas in
Excel
2003. Use a smaller specific range.

Try it like this (array entered**)

=AVERAGE(IF((Data!A1:A10=B1)*(Data!B1:B10=A2),Data !C1:C10))

** 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.

Hi,

I have a question for Excel 2003

=AVERAGE(IF(AND($A2=Data!$B:$B,B$1=Data!$A:$A),Dat a!$C:$C,""))

Im trying to get the AVERAGE of this and its giving me a #VALUE!
error..
$A2
is the name that is suppose to be equal in the Data! worksheet and
B$1
is
the
date that is suppose to be equal in the Data! worksheet. Im trying
to
use
AND
in IF for me to have two logical test..

Can you help me with this?

Thank you so much!

One way (array-entered: CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER or CMD-RETURN):

=AVERAGE(IF((A3:A45="Photo")*(H3:H45<""),H3:H45))

This is the array I'm using to try to determine an average.
Problem...if
the field is blank it's counting it as zero and lowering the
results.
It
figured 79% when it should have been 94%. 94% was returned
using
the
simple
average formula. I'm guessing I need to nest something to not
count
nulls?
Help!!!
