I am trying to set up a formula that will add up multiple cells and then
create an average. I have no trouble with this atall .... but after
generating the average i wanted it to go on and display 'yes' if
between -6 and 6. and 'no' if it is out of this region.
This was my first attempt but this always displays 'Yes' as its always
either above -6 or below 6.
=IF((((C3+E3)/2)<=6)*OR(((C3+E3)/2)=(0-6)),"Yes","No")

Can anyone offer any help?

Try this general form. Substute your cells e.g: (C3, E3) (C3:C10).
Untested.

=IF(OR(AVERAGE(cells)< -6, AVERAGE(cells)) 6, "Yes", "No")

Try this =IF(AND((C3+E3)/2=-6,(C3+E3)/2<=6),"Yes","No")
If you can live with FALSE and TRUE, a simpler version is
=AND((C3+E3)/2=-6,(C3+E3)/2<=6)

=IF(ABS(AVERAGE(C3,E3))<6,"Yes","No")

or

=ABS(AVERAGE(C3,E3))<6

in line with Bernie's two options
