Hi,

I'm trying to write a formula that averages the "%Met" column; however that column is pulling in data, for each month, from other spreadsheets. The Total line is the average of all the columns Jan thru Dec; so its taking Jan & Feb's results but also factoring in the remaining months as "0" and giving me 16.1%. Is there a way to write the formula so it does the correct average for what data exists? I need to Total line answer to be 96.9%, not 16.1%. Thanks!
