    Re: Average if range not blank

    And a follow up question if I may. I am averaging a range that is populated via index match. the formula I am using is an array like this:

    =IFNA(INDEX(J10:J13,MATCH($A$13:$A$16,$H$10:$H$13,0)),"")

    How do I prevent the average function I am using (thanks Willem) calculating on the blank "". At present it is counting the empty cells as 0.
    Many thanks,
    A

    Re: Average if range not blank

    Hi Adame,
    To ignore 0 (zero), try: =IF(COUNT(A1:A10)=0,"",AVERAGEIF(A1:A10,"<>0"))
