Average ignoring #DIV/0!

[circlesecretary]

I have a document with 41 sheets, 39 of which are basically the same. On sheet 40 I have a summary of the first 39.

This is a small portion of page 41. They go all the way across to Week 39 in two seperate tiers.

I want the average of the percentages of "red" which are pulled from other sheets using "='Week 1'!AC4". The range would be B4:BT4 and B12:U12, so I named those cells "Red".

I tried =AVERAGE(Red) and got 0.00 - even though Week 1 is 100%.

I'm stuck.

 

[Scott Huish]

That formula should not result in 0 if the range contains #DIV/0!, it should return #DIV/0!

If you are getting a 0 with that formula, I would double check the range Red is referring to.

Try this:

=SUMIF(red,"<1E100")/MAX(1,COUNT(red))

 

[circlesecretary]

I don't know what I'm doing wrong... I'm still getting a 0.00. I thought it would originally show #DIV/0! too. I checked "red" and it's refering to the right cells.

 

[Scott Huish]

Are the values stored as TEXT? Check the cell formatting.

 

[circlesecretary]

They are formatted as percentages. Should I change it to Number?

 

[Scott Huish]

That shouldn't matter. Put one of the cell references that has a #DIV/0! error in this formula, i.e. =ISERROR(C4)

What does it return?

 

[circlesecretary]

That changed the #DIV/0 error to 0.00%.

Thanks a lot for your help! It's time for me to head home. I'll start fresh on this tomorrow.
