Default Minimum results

Hi JD,

something to think about - in column C you have formulas =A*B, if A and B
are empty, the formula in column C returns 0. The AVERAGE of blank cells and
cells with 0 are not the same. So you may need to apply the same type of
logic to this calculation as you did to MIN. The problem is the MIN returns
0 so the issue is obvious while AVERAGE returns a number so it is not obvious.

Thanks,

Column A has some numbers in it, Column B has some numbers in it, and Column
C=A*B respectivily. At the bottom of column C is the Min, Max ,and Average
functions of column C i.e C31 =Min(C1:C30). Not all rows in A and B have
data but all cells in C have the formula. I don't have a problem with getting
the Average or Maximum of column C just the Minimum because it seems to think
the blank cells in column C are the minumums therefore my minimum cell (C31)
is blank even though the formula for cell C31 is there. Also I do not want
to have to go into each cell of column C and remove the formula because A & B
do not have data. Please help. Thanks

JD
