Hi guys,

I'm having some difficulty coming up with how to average all (non-blank) cells within the 1st percentile of my data array.

As a more concrete example; in an investment scenario, I basically want to know what the average negative return is within the worst 1% of monthly returns (using monthly returns data).

I used: =AVERAGEIF('1b. Import Morningstar Data'!AF2:HL2,('1b. Import Morningstar Data'!AF2:HL2<PERCENTILE.INC('1b. Import Morningstar Data'!AF2:HL2,0.01))) but this returns #DIV/0!. So I'm thinking I'm perhaps doing something wrong about not accounting for blank cells. I want to ignore the blank cells.

Can you guys help me ?

Thank you!

Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
