    How about adjust the COUNT() ranges in the INDEX(K$13:AN$13...) functions to count the current row entries..

    e.g. in I14:

    and in J14:

    both copied down.

    Re: create table of reading, problem when i have only half values

    thank you
    i understand what you mean,
    good call

    after updated the formulas, i found another problem

    if i miss a value in one reading, in the next reading it will not be consider in calculation, because the open space in the reading.
    if i put a letter the function wont count,and give me error
    if a put a 0 (zero) it will affect the rest of the calculations

    any sugestions??

    I replaced all you COUNT(K14:AN14) functions with MATCH(9.99E+307,K14:AN14).

    The COUNT(K14:AN14) function counts number of cells in range that have a number in them.. this is why it was skewed when you had blank cells.

    The MATCH(9.99E+307,K14:AN14) function matches cell containing last numeric entry since this function is looking for a very large number (9.99e+307) in the range, and returning the last cell with a number less than that large number...which is always the last cell in the range with a number...
