Average Non-Adjacent Cells in Budget Spreadsheet
I have Budget SpreadSheet thet is set by month(U3), then Budget(U4), Actual(V5) columns. This is repeated 12 times across the sheet. I then have "Buget Average" and an "Actual Average" cell. The budget average is easy because all cells have values for all 12 months. How do I average the actual since only a few months have data? This shoud be simple but I have read 200 posts and have not found anything. All suggestions were for ranges/adjacent cells. -- OPB3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ OPB3's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=33686 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=534713 |

Average Non-Adjacent Cells in Budget Spreadsheet
=AVERAGE(B1:M1)
Will average that range ignoring blank cells. If B, C, D, E are 1 2 3 4, returns 2.5 =AVERAGE(Data) If the cells are not all together, where Data is a named range, does the same.

Average Non-Adjacent Cells in Budget Spreadsheet
This worked for me where F1 is a link to another sheet cell A1 and holds a
lookup value for my table array on sheet 1. =VLOOKUP(INDIRECT(F1),A1:B3,2,0) The comment and color is a no, as far as I know. HTH Regards, Howard "OPB3" wrote in message ...
