How do I exclude the HIGH and LOW values in the =AVERAGE function
 

I want to exclude the MAX and MIN values in the range for the AVERAGE function.

How do I exclude the HIGH and LOW values in the =AVERAGE function
 

One way:

=TRIMMEAN(A1:A10,2/COUNT(A1:A10))

Note that will exclude *one instance each* of the min and max.

10
10
20
30
40
40

The above formula will average 10,20,30,40 = 25

Do you want something like this:
=(sum(a1:a100)-max(a1:a100)-min(a1:a100))/(count(a1:a100)-2)
?
