Hi all,

I have a spreadsheet with 7 calculations in, from columns F to L. Tha
calculations are "=G36-G40". The results can be variable that have values
greater than 0 in.
What i want to do is to get the average value of the cells with a value
greater than 0.

1049.96 1049.96 1083.46 1049.96 1049.96 0.00 0.00

The above should give me an average of 1, 056.66

Any help would be much appreciated.
 
Hi Les

One way among several:

=SUM(F1:L1)/COUNTIF(F1:L1,">"&0)

Note that you've excluded negative numbers. Change to "<>"&0 if you change
your mind.

HTH. Best wishes Harald
 
Thanks Harald, Much appreciated

Apologies. Negative values will affect the sum but not the count. Change to

=SUMIF(F1:L1,">"&0)/COUNTIF(F1:L1,">"&0)

Best wishes Harald
