    Replace words by numbers and calculate mean II

    Hello,

    in this post
    https://www.excelforum.com/excel-for...ml#post5057419

    I thought that the problem was solved, but now I'm trying the formula with more data and it is not working fine.
    Here I attach the old excel file (points.xls) and the new one (points3.xls)
    In points3.xls I tested the words in A2: "Getting ready for lights out" and the result for this should be 5,684 as shown in K7, but the formula calculates 5,13 as shown in G2.
    I attach both files.. I think that the problem is that now in points3.xls it finds more words in D column that match those in A2 for example it finds "ready" but it also finds "already" and uses both of them to calculate the average.. but I can't find out how to solve that
