    AVG Ignore Zero - Non adjacent cells

    Hello,
    So, I need to do an average of cells:
    WeeklySummary!BZ32:BZ36,WeeklySummary!DD32:DD36

    but not include zeros in the average -

    I tried
    =AVERAGE(IF(WeeklySummary!BZ32:BZ36,WeeklySummary!DD32:DD36>0,WeeklySummary!BZ32:BZ36,WeeklySummary!DD32:DD36)) hitting ctrl shift enter and I get a msg saying I've entered too many arguments.

    Meanwhile, in another cell, I am able to use:
    =AVERAGE(IF(WeeklySummary!EH32:EH36>0,WeeklySummary!EH32:EH36)) hitting cntrl shift enter just fine - just can't seem to do it with multiple cell ranges.

    And for the record, this is an average of an average, but the person who needs the data would rather have it that way since the amount percentage of total waste, which is total feet, minus actual feet divided by total feet. I'm open to setting it up to have the actual average, but there again, it would be adding a subtracting a large number of cells and ignoring blank or zero cells.

    Thank you.
