AVERAGE - Disregard zero and numbers over 60?
I need to compute averages of several rows of numbers. Every cell contains
a number. None are negative. I want the average to disregard '0' and any number over 60. Thanks in advance. |

Use an array** formula like this:
=AVERAGE(IF((A2:A6<0)*(A2:A6<60),A2:A6)) **Array formulas must be confirmed using Ctrl+Shift+Enter, not just Enter -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "Ted" wrote: I need to compute averages of several rows of numbers.

I presume by '0', you really mean the number zero, not the text "0". Try this array formula[*]: =average(if((0<A1:A100)*(A1:A100<=60),A1:A100)) The "*" functions as AND. You cannot use the AND function itself in this context. [*] An array formula is committed by pressing ctrl+shift+Enter instead of just Enter. You should see curly braces around the entire formula in the Formula Bar, e.g. {=formula}. You cannot enter the curly braces yourself; Excel inserts them to denote an array formula. If you make a mistake, select the cell, press F2, edit as needed, and finally press ctrl+shift+Enter. |

Perfect! Thank you both for your help!
