My question was more of a typo test:

=AVERAGE(IF(Northeast!B1:B1000<0,Northeast!B1:B10 00,""))

(just checking if B1:B1000 was used in both portions of the formula:

Did you adjust the range in each spot?
I'm not sure what you mean.

Just a shot at re-tracing the thread relevant to the above exchange .. I'm
not sure if the phenomena you're facing, assuming the formula's now
correctly array-entered, was because the cell references were not fixed,
i.e. you copied (to other cells):

=AVERAGE(IF(Northeast!B1:B1000<0, Northeast!B1:B1000,""))

instead of:

=AVERAGE(IF(Northeast!$B$1:$B$1000<0, Northeast!$B$1:$B$1000,""))

Some strange things/results could happen <g if the cell references are not
fixed where they should be.

Do hang around for Dave's comments, though ..
