Thanks Frank
That helped a lot
Another question.. now.. i need to make the function =AVERAGE(INDIRECT("A1:A" & B1)) be a "run-on" (ie, i want A1 to move on to A2 and A(B1) to be A(B1+1)... how do i do that?

Help greatly appreciated

H
if your value n is stored in cell B1 us
=AVERAGE(INDIRECT("A1:A" & B1)

Hello,
I would like to use the AVERAGE function.

AVERAGE (A1: A(n)) [ sic ] ----->where n is a variable somewhere to be input by user.
how do i get EXCEL to accept the value of "n" and force it to do the averaging process? A(n) doesn't work
Thanks

Hi
so you want to change the row index then you copy the
formula down?. If yes try
=AVERAGE(INDIRECT("A" & ROW(1:1) & ":A" & $B$1+ROW(1:1)-1))
if I understood you correctly.
