Hi!

Try this:

=AVERAGE(IF(INDIRECT(A2)=A44,PRICES!P$32848:P$3412 0))

I'm assuming you know that's an array formula.

Hi, I'm trying to use the contents of a cell (as opposed to the actual
cell)
in a Formula. For example - in the following Statement:

=AVERAGE(IF((PRICES!D$32848:D$34120=A44),PRICES!P$ 32848:P$34120))

Instead of using 'PRICES!D$32848:D$34120', I want to use the contents of
another cell - lets say Cell A2'

Cell A2 would contain the character expression 'PRICES!D$32848:D$34120'

So the statement above would read something like:

=AVERAGE(IF((? A2 ?),PRICES!P$32848:P$34120))

How do I get the statement above to recognize the contents of cell A2
instead of cell A2?

I know I could create a label range but what I am trying to do will work
much better if I can refer to the contents of a given cell.

I seem to remember being able to do this long ago in Lotus.

Thanks,
