    Sumifs formula not working

    =AVERAGEIFS($D$106:$D$2825,$D$106:$D$2825,">"&$I117,$D$106:$D$2825,"<"&$J117)

    Returns = 0

    But on a copy of the same worksheet, the same formula returns the correct value. Is there something wrong with my formula cotext?

    Thank you,

    Todd

    Are you sure the values in D are numbers and not numbers stored as text ?

    What does

    =COUNT(D106:D2825)

    return ?

    If 0 run Text to Columns on this range to coerce to number
    (assuming they are constants and not result of formulae)

    Yes they are formatted as numbers. I should also add that if I hardcode my < and >, the formula works.

    Might be easier if you could post up the offending sheet in a sample file ?

    When you said about the copy - did you copy the entire sheet or just the values onto another sheet ?

    My problem is still with M110-M121.

    Thanks for the assistance.

    Re: Sumifs formula not working

    M won't calculate given it is dependent upon N being > 0 and N can never be greater than 0 given it counts how many cells are > J and < K and J > K. I think perhaps you need to correct N in the first instance, perhaps to reference I & J rather than J & K ?
    ie the issue with the AVERAGEIFS calc is not in fact the AVERAGEIFS function at all.
