Adding an ongoing value to an Average

B

I am running a yearly total for a weekly average on a new worksheet
every week as follows:

=AVERAGE('6-23-05'!F18,'6-30-05'!F18,'7-7-05'!F18,'7-14-05'!F18,
'7-21-05'!F18,'7-28-05'!F18,'8-04-05'!F18,'8-11-05'!F18,F18)

When I copy the blank template to add a new week, I have to manually
add the cell of the previous week to the equation. Is there a way to
automate this? Eventually, this value is going to get incredibly long,
so I'm thinking there must be a better way.

Obviously I'm not terribly bright when it comes to Excel, so any help
would be appreciated.

Thanks,
-John

Use 2 dummy sheets first and last, then add all the sheets in-between

=AVERAGE(First:Last!F18)

Peo,

Thanks for the reply and sorry I didn't respond back sooner. Perhaps I
am still doing something wrong, but when I add the equation
=AVERAGE(First:Last!F18) I get a "divide by zero" error message. I am
using blank templates for the "First" and "Last" sheets.
