I am trying to average only the last 5 nonblank values in a row of cells. Is this possible?

J Joel Apr 29, 2007 #2 Use this custom function call with =AverageLast5("Q") where Q is the column Note: if there are less than 5 items in the row it will average only the number of cells with values. Function AverageLast5(MyCol As String) LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, MyCol).End(xlUp).Row RowCount = LastRow CellCount = 0 Total = 0 Do While (RowCount > 0) And (CellCount <> 5) If Not IsEmpty(Cells(RowCount, MyCol)) Then Total = Total + Cells(RowCount, MyCol) CellCount = CellCount + 1 End If RowCount = RowCount - 1 Loop AverageLast5 = Total / CellCount End Function

J Joel Apr 29, 2007 #4 the functon will not work if the total last value in the same column as the data. I'm search for the last value in the row. If you want the total to be at the end of the data then change from: LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, MyCol).End(xlUp).Row to: LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, MyCol).End(xlUp).Row - 1
