Aggregate Help

Hi,

It would have been useful if Microsoft had included an option to exclude zeroes within the options parameter.

Since they didn't, the standard workaround is a volatile array formula**:

=AVERAGE(IF(SUBTOTAL(103,OFFSET(G4,ROW(G4:G103)-MIN(ROW(G4:G103)),)),IF(G4:G103<>0,G4:G103)))

A non-volatile alternative is this triple-AGGREGATE set-up:

=AGGREGATE(9,7,G4:G103)/SUMPRODUCT(N(AGGREGATE(14,7,G4:G103,ROW(INDEX(A:A,1):INDEX(A:A,AGGREGATE(3,7,G4:G103))))<>0))

Regards

**Array formulas are not entered in the same way as 'standard' formulas. Instead of pressing just ENTER, you first hold down CTRL and SHIFT, and only then press ENTER. If you've done it correctly, you'll notice Excel puts curly brackets {} around the formula (though do not attempt to manually insert these yourself).
