Adding time [t]:mm:ss
Hi.
I try to figure out the average time spent in a range but cant figure out how. This is how it looks like: 00:00:10 00:00:06 00:00:00 00:00:04 00:00:04 ------------ =AVERAGE(A2:A6) =============== Here is a total of 24 seconds. These seconds should be divided with 4 and return the answer; 00:00:06. The problem is: 1) One row does not contain any hours, minutes or seconds and should not be counted. 2) Even when there is no figures in that particular row, the answer returned is wrong? Anybody have a suggestion? Thanks in advance for your help! Jan |

Hi!
Try this: Enter this formula using the key combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER): =AVERAGE(IF(A2:A60,A2:A6)) Format the cell as h:mm:ss Biff "Jan G. Thorstensen" wrote in message ... Hi.

Hi, again. One more problem with this.
When I try to calculate with more arguments, it fails? Say I have different ranges I want to include. =AVERAGE(IF(A2:A6,A10:A140,A2:A6,A10:A14)) or =AVERAGE(IF((A2:A6,A10:A140),(A2:A6,A10:A14))) Now, it returns an error? It say the formula contains too many arguments. How can I avoid this or how should the formula look like? Thank you for your help! Regards Jan. PS I am using the key combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER.

Hi!
You can't use multiple disjointed ranges in that manner. What do you have in the cells that are between the 2 ranges? A7, A8 and A9? If these cells are empty or have text in them then you can just include them in the reference as a contiguous range like: =AVERAGE(IF(A2:A140,A2:A14)) Text and empty cells will be ignored in the formula. If the cells between the ranges contain numbers then try one of these. The first one is an array. (array entered - CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER) =AVERAGE(IF(CHOOSE({1,2},A2:A6,A10:A14)0,CHOOSE({ 1,2},A2:A6,A10:A14))) Or, normally entered (with just ENTER): =(SUMIF(A2:A6,"0")+SUMIF(A10:A14,"0"))/(COUNTIF(A2:A6,"0")+COUNTIF(A10:A14,"0")) Biff "Jan G.
