Have you tried using the Average function? It will allow for multiple ranges.

Barry's solution covers the whole range from B to E so includes both ranges. The columns in between will be ignored because they are text or blank. <br />
<br />
If the columns in between may get numbers then you can put multiple ranges into the Average formula:<br />
<br />
=AVERAGE(B7:B32,E7:E32)<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

I have attached an excel spreadsheet.<br />
<br />
Basically I need to take only the values that are filled out in the blue section, add them up, and then divide them by the number of fields that had a value in it.<br />
<br />
For example.<br />
<br />
Since there are 7 fields in blue that were filled out, then the result in the yellow field at the bottom of the sheet would be 20 / 7 = result<br />
<br />
How can I have a formula that would calculate this complex solution? &nbsp;HELP!<br />

calculate cells to one field using a formula.  Calculate total in field divided by number of fields
