    Help with averaging

    Hello,
    I need help with figuring out how to get a formula to average a column
    of numbers excluding blanks and 0's and in the same formula also having
    it only calculate/average data that has a certain team name in the row.

    This is the current formula I'm using but, the average is not close to
    being accurate. I'm thinking it's either calculating some blanks or 0's
    or it's calculating data in G5:G505 that belongs to other teams besides
    the "Executive Team"

    =AVERAGEA(IF(B5:B505="Executive Team",G5:G505))

    Let me know if there's another way of doing this.

    Thanks

    =averagea() will include true/falses in the average. You may want to consider
    using =average().

    =AVERAGE(IF((B5:B505="Executive Team")*(G5:G505<>0),G5:G505))

    still array entered.
