    Adding up and averaging

    Sorry if this is a newb question, and trust me I did try the search function, problem is I am not even sure how to search this as I am not a MS ninja.

    So what I am trying to do:

    I have a column of cells that calculate a cumulative date of "x" years "x" months based upon a date in a seperate column and =today() in the formula. What I am trying to do now is on a different page gather metrics of a total of "x" years "x" months in the column then get an average of that total. Any and all help is appreciated.

    Attach a sample workbook to help show what you mean.

    Re: Adding up and averaging

    Hi, welcome to the forum

    Agree a sample WB will help lots, with a representative sample data, and some expected outcomes.
    a few observations though...
    1. If you have a cell with x years and x months in it, that cell probably contains text, and you cannot add/average/calc pretty much anything with text.
    2. to add stuff (numbers) use the =SUM() finction
    3. to count stuff, use the =count() function (for mumbers) or the counta() function (for anything)
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Regards
