Syntax

Avg(NumericExpression)

The Avg function contains the following argument.

Argument	Description
NumericExpression	A string expression identifying the field that contains the numeric data you want to average or an expression that performs a calculation using the data in that field. Operands in NumericExpression can include the name of a table field, a variable, or a function (which can be either intrinsic or user-defined but not one of the other SQL aggregate functions).

Remarks

The average calculated by Avg is the arithmetic mean (the sum of the values divided by the number of values). You could use Avg, for example, to calculate average freight cost.

The Avg function does not include any Null values in the calculation.
