Do you have errors in any of those fields in the raw data?
Do you have any numbers in the field that you're averaging? evg1 wrote: I am extremely new to pivot tables and trying to just get ave, max, and min of a couple of columns ...

I don't have errors in the raw data, I am taking a spreadsheet of a couple of columns - some have numbers, some are blanks - then putting into a pivot table (count of ...) but when I try to have it changed to get averages, etc. It doesn't work BL-DLY (4P) BL-POD (3P) Count of BL-DLY (4P) Count of Dwell Time at POD Count of Dwell Time POD to Rail Departure COLLEGE PARK, GA CHARLESTON, SC 11 11 11 LOS ANGELES, CA 2 2 2 SAVANNAH, GA 7 7 7 COLLEGE PARK, GA Total 20 20 20 DALLAS, TX LOS ANGELES, CA 10 10 10 DALLAS, TX Total 10 10 10 LANGLEY, BC VANCOUVER, BC 1 1 1 LANGLEY, BC Total 1 1 1 MIRA LOMA, CA LOS ANGELES, CA 66 66 66 MIRA LOMA, CA Total 66 66 66 MONROE TOWNSHIP, NJ NEW YORK, NY 57 57 57 MONROE TOWNSHIP, NJ Total 57 57 57 -- evg1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ evg1's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=35043 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=547887 |

Are those "numbers" really numbers?
Try this in a couple of empty cells: =counta(a2:a9999) =count(a2:a9999) Adjust the range to point at the field you want averaged. The =counta() will count the number of non-empty cells. The =count() will count the number of cells with real numbers in them. If that =count() returns 0, then your numbers aren't numbers. They're really text. One way to fix this is to: select an empty cell edit|copy select the offending range edit|paste special|add (But this is just a guess.) If the "numbers" came from a web page, you may have some of those HTML non-breaking spaces (char(160)) in the cells. David McRitchie has a macro that cleans up this kind of stuff: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/join.htm#trimall (look for "Sub Trimall()" If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm evg1 wrote: I don't have errors in the raw data, I am taking a spreadsheet of a couple of columns - some have numbers, some are blanks - then putting into a pivot table (count of ...) but when I try to have it changed to get averages, etc. It doesn't work BL-DLY (4P) BL-POD (3P) Count of BL-DLY (4P) Count of Dwell Time at POD Count of Dwell Time POD to Rail Departure COLLEGE PARK, GA CHARLESTON, SC 11 11 11 LOS ANGELES, CA 2 2 2 SAVANNAH, GA 7 7 7 COLLEGE PARK, GA Total 20 20 20 DALLAS, TX LOS ANGELES, CA 10 10 10 DALLAS, TX Total 10 10 10 LANGLEY, BC VANCOUVER, BC 1 1 1 LANGLEY, BC Total 1 1 1 MIRA LOMA, CA LOS ANGELES, CA 66 66 66 MIRA LOMA, CA Total 66 66 66 MONROE TOWNSHIP, NJ NEW YORK, NY 57 57 57 MONROE TOWNSHIP, NJ Total 57 57 57 -- evg1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ evg1's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=35043 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=547887 -- Dave Peterson |
