Default Function for Deleting Data?

I posted a question last week on how I could smooth a line graph in Excel
2000. What was suggested was to do a moving average of my my data.

Heres what I would like to do. I'm creating an average of every five rows. I
copied and pasted the function throughout the entire database (2513 records)
in a new column.

I do not need all the averages in the new column, just every fifth record. I
could go through and manually remove the records but I have more databases to
repeat this process and time is something I do not have.

Is there a function, prior to or after the averaging, that I can run that
would eliminate/cut the data I do not need?

Below is an image of what I am working on.

Thank you.

Nevermind. I went through one column for 2001 manually, then copied the
function of one section (with the blanks) for the 2005 column. After that I
just filtered the blanks out and created my graph.
