Issue with SUMPRODUCT leaving a 0 value in cell
 

Howdy All,

I have a spreadsheet that contains a couple instances of a formula similar
to this one:

=IF(SUMPRODUCT(--($C$4:C4=C4))1,"",SUMPRODUCT(--(C4:$C$501=C4),H4:$H$501))

The formula works great, with one exception.

It leaves a 0 value in the cell below the last instance.

This interferes with an AVERAGE formula that I am running on a column.

Any ideas on how to either eliminate the 0 value, or modify my AVERAGE
formula to not count the 0 value?

Thanks,
Brian

Leave out the cell below "last instance" (what ever that means) when
computing the average?

Sorry for the confusion.

But this spreadsheet has info continually added to it.
And in the row below the last entry, the value of that formula displays a 0.
And I average the entire column because the end row is undefined (always
increasing).

Try something like this, array-entered (press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER):
=AVERAGE(IF(H4:H5010,H4:H501))

We can't use entire col references.
If necessary, use something close, like this:
=AVERAGE(IF(H4:H655360,H4:H65536))

=IF( OR( C4 = "", COUNTIF( $C$4:C4, C4 ) 1 ), "", SUMIF( C4:$C$501, C4,
H4:$H$501 ) )

The formula

=IF(SUMPRODUCT(--($C$4:C4=C4))1,"",SUMPRODUCT(--(C4:$C$501=C4),H4:$H$501))

is too expensive. Invoke instead:

=SUMIF(C4:$C$501,C4,H4:$H$501)

If necessary:

=IF(COUNTIF($C$4:C4,C4)1,"",SUMIF(C4:$C$501,C4,H4 :$H$501))

The average formula can be modified to excluse 0's...

=AVERAGE(IF(Range0,Range)

confirmed with control+shift+enter.
