I have made a spreadsheet to keep attendance based on percentages. I want to
be able to insert a formula in the last column to calculate a running average
total. Example, at the end of March they have 100%, but in April they only
have 50% attendance, so the yearly would be 87.5%.

It can't be that difficult, but I can't figure out how to do it. Plus, I
don't want to change the formula each month.

THANKS

Maybe something like this...........

=SUM(A1:L1)/COUNT(A1:L1)

If your monthly attendance figures are in column B, starting in B1, your
running average formula can be =AVERAGE(B$1:B1) in the January row, which
when you copy it down the column will be =AVERAGE(B$1:B4) by the time you
get to April, for example.

I'm sorry, I really don't grasp your data layout..........about all I can
suggest is for you to replace the ranges A1:L1 in both parts of the formula I
gave you with the actuall cell addresses that contain your percentages of
interest......like

=SUM(C5,F5,I5, etc etc)/COUNT(C5,F5,I5, etc etc)

Here is a piece of the spsheet.

Jan-06 Total Feb-06 Total Mar-06 Total
1/5 1/19 2/2 2/16 3/2 3/16

w w 100% w w 100% w w The w indicates they worked. So the yearly total
needs to show a up to date total in percent.

Thanks for trying, I guess I am not explaining it very good. It is an
attendance chart for the Fire Co. They have 2 or 3 meetings a month. I have
it set up to give the percent of attendance for each month. They wanted to
be able to see a yearly average for each member. EX: if they have 100%
attendance for 3 months and 50% attendance for the 4th month, that would be
87.5% for the year so far. But, I can't figure out what formula to use.

I did the sum of each month, but not sure how to tell it to divide by
howevermany meetings have occured so far.

No problem, just sometimes my medication doesn't work as well as other times
<g...Please post your formula you used to "sum" the months.
