Default calculate average from non contiguous column, ignoring (0) values

I'm using Office 2003. I have a need to have 0 in a range of cells (instead
of blank). I need to create an average from some non contiguous cells. I
want the average to ignore cells containing a 0.

I can have the formula | =IF(B2=0,"",B2) | and if b2 is 0 then the formula
returns a blank, and if b2 is < 0 then formula returns value from b2.

If I embed this If formula into an Average formula |
=AVERAGE(IF(B2=0,"",B2),B9,B16,B23) | it returns a #Value error.

How can I create an Average formula that ignores cells with 0 value?
