How do I exclude cells from a formula?
Thanks for help on this:
I have a simple PERCENTAGE function for a column of figures: =AVERAGE(T19:T1333) However, I need to EXCLUDE from the percentage calculation three specific cells in the column - T500, T1164, T1320. I thought it would be easy to write the formula thus: =AVERAGE(T19-T487+T513-T1151+T1177-T1333) But no, that's not the answer. There must be an easy, elegant method to doing this properly. Thanks!
