    Dragging a formula problem (Needs skip a certain column)

    Hello All,

    I'm wondering if there's an easier way to drag a formula where there is an alternating consistent column that needs to be skipped? I've attached an example file but here is the general idea that I was hoping to achieve.

    I need to calculate the time difference between D4 against B4 which is (D4-B4) and this is shown in M4 and need to have it repeated on F4 against D4 (F4-D4) shown in N4.

    How do I drag it easily across the next fields.

    Please see the attached file.

    Thank you so much!

    One way.
    Using INDEX formula and manipulating with references by ROW and COLUMN

    Formula: copy to clipboard
