returns calculation using sumproduct

I have return streams going down colums B through I
Dates are down column A
I want colum J to give me the weighted return for the streams of returns.
But it must re-allocate to funds that have performance and not count funds
that do not. So the Dec-01 portfolio return should be 50% fund 2, and 50%
Fund 3, and 0% fund 1
the allocations are in row 45 and should be flexible to be adjusted as
needed.
THANKS!

OK, sorry I will try

I need to use sumproduct but when I use this formula:
=SUMPRODUCT(B2:I2,B$46:I$46)
it will equally weight funds that have missing performance. I.E
lets look at Dec 01.
Fund 1 was not in existance so it has a blank cell in B1
Fund 2 returned -1.88%
Fund 3 returned .36%

The portfolio (combination of funds) for Dec 01 should return: 50% * -1.88%
+ 50% * .36%

sorry if I am not being clear

Avoid using proportional typefaces in newsreaders.

Given the allocations of 33.3% for all funds, so 50/50 for Dec-01, how
do you get a portfolio return of -0.51% from fund returns of -1.88% and
0.36%? Simple average could be -0.76%. To get that, I could have used
the formula

=SUMPRODUCT(B2:D2,B$45:D$45)/SUMIF(B2:D2,"<>",B$45:D$45)

When I use that formula it gives me also -.51%
unfortunately is still counts fund 1 as 0 (33%)

>>=SUMPRODUCT(B2:D2,B$45:D$45)/SUMIF(B2:D2,"<>",B$45:D$45)

With B2 *blank*, C2 containing -1.88%, D2 containing 0.36% and each
cell in B45:D45 containing =1/3, the formula above returns -0.76% on my
system. However, if B2 contains a zero-length string like ="", then the
formula above evaluates to -0.51%. So I guess you're using strings of
zero or more spaces to represent no allocation in particular funds
rather than blanking those cells. Change the formula to
=SUMPRODUCT(B2:D2,B$45:D$45)/SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(B2:D2),B$45:D$45)

wow it works. exactly what i need. you are an excel genious. thank you!
