The following array formula: =AVERAGE(IF(AND(MONTH(A1:A6)=10, B1:B6="reported", ISNUMBER(SEARCH("john",C1:C6))), D1:D6) Note: An array formula is committed by pressing ctrl+shift+Enter instead of just Enter. The entire formula will be enclosed in curly brackets, i.e. {=formula}. If you make a mistake, press F2 to edit, then press ctrl+shift+Enter. > Note that there are some text strings in column D, > so it is not all numbers AVERAGE will automatically ignore cells with text strings. But if D3 is actually the Excel error #NA instead of the string "NA", you will need another term to ignore it.

From: T. Valko on 28 Nov 2009 13:47 >=AVERAGE(IF(AND(MONTH(A1:A6)=10, B1:B6="reported", >ISNUMBER(SEARCH("john",C1:C6))), D1:D6) Can't use AND in this application. AND returns a single result where you need an array of results. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "JoeU2004" <joeu2004> wrote in message news:eg1XmoDcKHA.1648(a)TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > "JRD" <JRD(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote: >> How can I average the numbers in column D, >> but only the ones in rows where A = October, >> B = reported and C contains "John"? > > The following array formula: > > =AVERAGE(IF(AND(MONTH(A1:A6)=10, B1:B6="reported", > ISNUMBER(SEARCH("john",C1:C6))), D1:D6) > > Note: An array formula is committed by pressing ctrl+shift+Enter instead > of just Enter.

From: Pete_UK on 28 Nov 2009 14:33 Perhaps you could use: =SUMIFS( ... ) / COUNTIFS( ... ) with the same conditional parameters in the two functions. (Sorry, I don't have XL2007, so am unsure of the syntax). Hope this helps.
