Putting columns back in alpha order
I have a file where the columns go from A to G then skips to AU so I can't
average the row. Can I "rename" the columns so there is no break from G to AU? |

It sounds like your columns H through AT aren't out of order, but rather have
been hidden. Select Columns G and AU Click on the "Format" Menu Select "Column" Select "Unhide" Now, you should see all of your columns.

If you can't see the columns from H to AT, then they are presumaby either hidden or have zero width. If you select columns on either side (or the whole sheet) then you can unhide and/or set the width to something visible, then if you want to delete the columns you can. -- David Biddulph |

Sounds like there are hidden columns - you cannot rename columns
Select the column headers G and AU and right click - is there an Unhide item, if so click it Happy Thanksgiving -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "CLytle" wrote in message ...

Thanks for your help. But columns are not hidden. I am getting this file
second hand, at some point someone deleted the columns but however they did it, the columns letters did not adjust.

Hi
Judging by the replies you have had, and the common response you have given to each one, if the columns are not hidden, are you saying that all columns are visible, but there is only data in A to G and then again from AU to say BD =AVERAGE(A1:BD1) will return the correct result, because Average ignores cells which have blank values Equally =AVERAGE(1:1) will give you the correct average of all cells that contain numeric data in row 1. -- Regards Roger Govier "CLytle" wrote in message ...
