Default get an average of 3 cells, if they all have numbers, in excel.

In excel I need to average 3 cells, only if they all contain a number.
and if they don't contain a number, don't display an error.

=IF(COUNT(A1,B2,C3)=3, AVERAGE(A1,B2,C3), "")

Unfortunately, you will not see this response unless you use a different NG
interface, e.g. Google Groups or a newsreader that access the MSnews server,
msnews.microsoft.com. There is a problem with the MSDG web interface, which
has not been fixed for over 22 hours now.

Highlight the three cells and look down at the bottom of the worksheet
window at the status bar. The average is displayed.
