Hello
Im trying to create a function for a userform that averages a range on a
sheet based on weather the values are not = "".

EX: the formula in my cells on the sheet (time cells) is this:
=IF(ISBLANK($B7),"",SUM(B7:E7))

Im not sure why, but even on my sheet I cannot get the right answer but
anyways:

On the userform, Im taking the average of cells F3:F53
I ve tried the Application.WorksheetFunction.Sumif
(F3:F53,"<""""")/Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(F3:F53,"<"" """)

But as most of you probably know, it did not work (overflow).
I tried placing the range into a range variable set fr=range("Times!F3:F53")
and using this instead of the range in the worksheetfunction formula.

How can I place this into a textbox on my userform as the average of that
range (assuming there will be values that have a "" value?

Thank you so much
Terry V

the overflow error is probably caused by the fact that you assign the
result to an integer and the result 32767

assign the result to a double or variant.

count counts the numeric entries
countA counts all non-blank entries
countBlank counts the blanks.


Sub Foo()
Dim x As Double, y As Double
Dim n As Long, m As Long

Dim r As Range
Set r = Range("F3:F53")
With Application.WorksheetFunction
'use range variable
x = .Sum(r) / .Count(r)
'use range directly in arguments
y = .Sum(Range("F3:F53")) / .Count(Range("F3:F53"))
'count the blanks can be done several ways
n = .CountIf(Range("F3:F53"), "=" & vbNullString)
m = .CountBlank(Range("F3:F53"))
End With
'now have a look at the values of the variables.
Application.VBE.Windows("Locals").Visible = True
Stop
End Sub

Sub Overflow()
'this will cause overflow!
Dim i As Integer
i = 32767 'ok
i = 32768 'ouch!
End Sub

You want to get the average of the range F3:F53, ignoring cells that contain
empty text or are blank, right?

AVERAGE ignores blanks and text, so why can't you use just

A = Application.SUM(Range("F3:F53"))

instead of SUMIF and COUNTIF?

Or did you mean

A = Application.Average(Range("F3:F53"))

Yes, I think I did! Thank's for catching that!

I need to be able to average the column. In the column, I will have blank
strings ( "" ) because of the formula I have. So I cannot use Average
because it averages "all values".
So I figured if I sum all cells that are <"" and divide it by the count of
all cells <"", it would give me the results I was hoping for.

Hence the
Application.WorksheetFunction.Sumif()/Application.WorksheetFunction.Countif(
)

Thank you

Thank you
This gives me a good Idea of the different ways to count. I like the example
you gave because I knew nothing about the Locals Windows... which was really
helpful...

Again, Thank you so much

PLEASE..... look at Help for the AVERAGE function. It does NOT average "all
values". It averages all NUMBERS.

Here's the relevant statement from Help: "If an array or reference argument
contains text, logical values, or empty cells, those values are ignored;
however, cells with the value zero are included."

Why don't you try your more complicated formula and compare the result with a
simple AVERAGE function. I'm sure that if you've described your situation
correctly, the results will be identical.
