Default What is the average month

Yes, it does make a difference. MODE will not work with text; it wants to
see a number.

I should also mention that the formula you are using is refering to a cell
that has an existing formula in it: =IF(G2=0,"",TEXT(G2,"mmmm"))

Does that make a difference?

You could try this array** formula:

=MODE(IF(ISNUMBER(B2:B100),MONTH(B2:B100)))

**confirm formula using Ctrl+shift+Enter, not just Enter.

Hello,

This is a great forum and I appreciate all the help.

In a worksheet I have a ton of data. However in Column B I have the
transaction month of purchases. For most rows the month is the same
but
there are times where it reflects the month prior.

In column A I would like to show the billing month for the line. The
question is how do I write a formula to look at the entire column and
show
the month that appears most in column B and return this month to column
A.

Thanks
Jim
