E3E3=IF(D7="","",AVERAGE(E7:E40))
E7:E40E7=IF(D7="","",AVERAGE(IF(D7<>C7,C7-D7)+IF(C7<>D7,C7-D7)))
 

Excel Facts

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
you are averaging empty cells as well. Try using =AVERAGEIF(E7:E40,"<>0")

That works for the Total Averager part, but not for E8. it's the E7:E40 I'm having trouble with. it shows alot of ####

I suspect its because it goes from AM to PM. Might need someone else to help on that.
