    Subtotal "average" with criteria from another column

    Hello forum,
    Have this little problem to find out the average speed within a route. In column B is the sequence of the route so sequence no 1 is the first stop etc. After first stop the route begins so I want to find the average speed within the route in other word every sequence 1 has to be out of the calculation. I want the possibility to filter each route to see average speed within the route.

    Attached is a test file, I tried using "=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(1," but have problems for it to work using function "average"

    Thanks

    Try this:

    =AVERAGE(IF(SUBTOTAL(2,OFFSET(C3,ROW(C3:C2574)-ROW(C3),0,1)),IF(B3:B2574<>1,C3:C2574))) Ctrl Shift Enter

    Re: Subtotal "average" with criteria from another column

    Are you confirming the formula with Ctrl Shift Enter instead of just Enter? It works as expected on my end.

    I must have missed that you were looking for a VBA solution.

    There was already a formula in the cell. I figured that you were looking for a formula solution.

    Once this formula is in the cell, you should never have to touch it.

    I'm not sure why you say that you need VBA for this but regardless, VBA is not my specialty so I won't be able to help there.

    Tried it with my vba macro, but it did nothing...

    This one is working but that is not an average value

    Re: Subtotal "average" with criteria from another column

    Copy and paste the formula from post #2 into C1 of the sample that you shared in post #1 and confirm it using Ctrl Shift Enter.

    You should get 31.96428...

    Once that you see that the formula works, you can work on entering it using VBA.

    Maybe you enter an array formula differently than a regular formula in VBA?

    Re: Subtotal "average" with criteria from another column

    I'm using mac for the moment and I tried all combinations of Ctrl Shift Enter, but it gives me an error pointing to the "OFFSET" line... Array has been working before I need to check if there is another combination for mac I have missed....

    I don't use a mac. After a bit of Googling, try ⌘ + RETURN or CTRL + SHIFT + RETURN.

    Re: Subtotal "average" with criteria from another column

    OOPPS sorry, I know the problem now... I forgot to change the "," to ";" we use ";" instead in formulas... now it is working, but I do see you use 2 after SUBTOTAL and that is normally "Count"..!? Why not 1?

    Re: Subtotal "average" with criteria from another column

    @63falcondude, thanks your solution did work, but to implement it to my VBA is not working....
    This is what I get when running "record macro", but when I put it into my VBA it ignores it...! For testing I put another value in the cell prior to the code line of the array and it does not overwrite it, seems just to ignore this part of the code and give no error.... what can cause this??
