Default MS Access and using the Average function in a report

In any report or group (not page) header or footer, you can use a text box
with a control source like:
=Avg(DateDiff("d",[StartDate], [EndDate])
If you can't figure this out, then come back with enough information
regarding your report record source and maybe some sample data and desired
display.
