Im trying to find the average values of cells across multiple workbooks. Problem is, the values aren't continuous and the amount of values requires may change in each work book.

Im trying to average a employee's worked variance. There work can change through the day so it would need to search the workbook for all there entries.

for example:

Workbook 1. Lauren's worked variance would be in G17
Workbook 2. Lauren's worked variance would be in G17 and G34 (as she completed two different workstreams through the day and ive got other reports to calcualte how much work was done on that stream in total)

I would need the average worked variance for the three entries.

I hope this makes sense!
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
First thing : Welcome on the forum.

Second thing : I have a few question for you.

1. Are all the workbook following the same format?
2. Are all the workbook in the same directory (folder)?
3. How does you know that the information in G17 is for Lauren and not is colleague?

- This is where the main problem would be cause it would need to search for there name and then there entry for 'Worked Variance'. Make sense?

It make sense for the third question.

However, could you still answer for the first 2 question?

With the information that you just gave, it will help to have a exemple of what you have.
