Looping formula in same columm / dynamic range?
Hi all,
I had to make an account to find answers, so is my first post!
What I need is the difference (max-min) in A column for each interval between zeros. Its possible with formulas only?
This table is an example, real one had 3000 lines and too many sheets

oh! IMPORTANT:
the amount of cells between 0 is NOT always 3, it always varies .... the image tricks

Hello gdieterich and Welcome to Excel Forum.

JeteMc,
Thank you very much for your response, it's 99% what I want, helped me a lot.
I attached the whole sheet, Its more explained there.
now I just need to filter the highest values (final total time) and shrink the results one below the other.
FYI, this is data of induction furnaces that melting cast iron, so with this formulas I can automate the extract of melting time.
This starts out being pretty promising, but then fails due to some of the stating times not having corresponding ending times and visa versa. For example I don't understand why M461 doesn't read Start, nor why M627 doesn't read Finish.
At any rate if those issues are sorted then perhaps the following will help with getting total times.
1) Column U shows a list of Start times using*: =IFERROR(INDEX(N$2:N$2421,SMALL(IF(M$2:M$2421="Start",ROW($2:$2421)-1),ROW(1:1))),"")
2) Column V shows a list of Finish times using*: =IFERROR(INDEX(N$2:N$2421,SMALL(IF(M$2:M$2421="Start",ROW($2:$2421)-1),ROW(1:1))),"")
3) Column W shows a list of Total times using: =IFERROR(V5-U5,"")
*Denotes array entered formulas which need to be confirmed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER before they are copied down the column.
Note that the formatting for the Totals column is: [h]:mm:ss
