Applying function after filter is applied
I need to use functions like mean, median, mode, standard deviation, etc,
after I apply different filters to a sheet. Whenever I try to use functions it includes the values excluded by the filter (as if event though the cells were hidden, they were still used in the calculations). How do I apply a filter then use a function like mean median and mode to only work on the values visible? |

Applying function after filter is applied
I type "=Subtotal(MODE(G2:G1796))" and it says I have too few arguments.

Applying function after filter is applied
Hi,
If you read up on SUBTOTAL in the Help menu, you will see that you have to specify a function argument. 1 for average, 2 for count and so on. Please go through the list and use the appropriate function argument -- Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com "lacklustre" wrote in message ...

Don't see one for mode, which is important cause I'm sorting through a few
thousand lines. Also need to know how to do this for MODE function on words.
