Average columns that contain text
You haven't said whether you want the text to be ignored or used in the
average as if the cell was 0 ? if the following is in A1 to A6 then =AVERAGE(A1:A6) gives 7. Is this what you want ? 10 12 8 4 Hello 1 "Malcolm" wrote: What formula can I use to average a column of numbers that has one cell containing text? |
