    I have a series of data like so.

    Column A is Dates

    Column B is "Number of Calls"

    Column C is "Number of Sales"

    I'm trying to do weekly averages on a seperate sheet

    I was trying to figure out how get Excel to add 7 to the cell reference so that the pattern is like so:

    =average(B2:B8)
    =average(B9:B15)
    =average(B16:B22)


    Any help would be appreciated

    so let me get this straight, you want to work out a way to replace the B8/B15/B22 with a general expression that you can copy and paste into the average formula? how hard is it to add 6? you are goign to have to type each one individually anyway, so simply adding 6 to the value, and then typing it in would be quicker.

    in other words, i'm not sure how to :D :D :D

    Yeah, I have like 100 weeks to go through, so right now, i'm just typing away here hoping I don't make a mistake..... I make a mistake in one, it will throw off every one after that.....

    I was trying to get the Autofill to do it for me.
