Default Computing averages excluding values with no value

I am trying to figure out an average for a range of cells but I do not want
the cell used in the calculation if there isn't a value. I am using it for
YTD (year to date) averages and do not want to have to go and change it after
every month. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

AVERAGE ignores blank cells (but includes cells with zero) so if the cells
are blank, you can AVERAGE the whole of your range.
