    2 Week Rolling Average... HELP!

    I am pretty basic when it comes to Excel 2010.

    I need help determing a rolling average for the past two weeks in column L on the WOH tab for every 2 columns labeled "COMP" on the Completed Work tab.

    I do not want to see lovely DIV/0! error however zeroes must be included in the 2 week calculation if any, ignoring the blanks.

    I'm not sure if a helper column is needed on the Completed Work tab in order to calculate the rolling average.
    I have tried different suggestions from google and assorted tutorials but I would assume I'm not inputting the formulas correctly...

    I haven't tested this but it should work. Enter in WOH!L3 and fill down

    I am assuming that you want the daily average for a 2 week period on a rolling basis in the file uploaded in the previous message.

    I was staring too hard at the spreadsheet yesterday, Thank you newdoverman for your assistance! It definitely works as I needed it to.

    Re: 2 Week Rolling Average... HELP!

    If I were to switch the "RECVD" & "COMP" (so that COMP came before RECVD) columns on the Completed Work tab, would that affect the formula in WOH!L3?

    It would kill the formula unless you moved the date along with the COMP as the date is directly above COMP and that relationship has to be maintained.

    Re: 2 Week Rolling Average... HELP!

    That's what I figured as I played with it to see what would happen.

    Do you have suggestions to manipulate the formula in C3:J3 so that it is pulling the RECVD column data instead of the COMP column data? 11/8 should read 452402 not 450000. Again, I tried playing with it but I am still in the process of learning...

    =IFERROR(HLOOKUP(C$2,'Completed Work'!$B$2:$DH$30,ROW()),"N/A")


    ***Nevermind, I figured that out too! Thanks a bunch again!

    Re: 2 Week Rolling Average... HELP!

    I added the dates above the RECVD on the Completed Work worksheet and hid them by formatting the font with the background colour and then used this formula in the WOH worksheet at C3 and filled across and down:

    ...confirmed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. You will know the array is active when you see curly braces { } appear around your formula. If you do not CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will get an error or a clearly incorrect answer. Press F2 on that cell and try again.
