Please help me, I managed to show text values on my pivot table but when i want to show the average an error always shows saying " We can't summarize this field with average because it is not supported calculation for text data types". thank you!
 

Excel Facts

Move date out one month or year
Use =EDATE(A2,1) for one month later. Use EDATE(A2,12) for one year later.
Sort by date Sort by votes
How do you expect to average text?
