    Averaging a specific range of values from a reference point

    Hi, I know this is kind of a noob question but, how would one go about finding the average of a range of values in a column from the top and bottom of a reference point ?
    Example: Say i wanted to find the average of the values from row 6 +- 3 rows (Therefore rows 3,4,5,6,7,8,9)?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    6 x.xx <------(reference point)
    7 x.xx
    8 x.xx
    9 x.xx
    10 x.xx

    with your numbers in col a and the row you want in d1 =AVERAGE(OFFSET(A1,D1-4,,7)) so if d1=6 it will average rows 3,4,5,6,7,8,9
