    modify a forumla to adjust

    Hi there, I need the forumla to adjust when a change in the number pattern changes. Please see attached. It is a little difficult to explain.

    Warmest Regards,
    Martin.

    Maybe you could try. It's not clear to me from the spreadsheet.

    The right side is what I want. In order to get the that I need to change the formula in cell M15. You will see that formula in M15 is different from M14. If I didnt make that change I would get the calculation on the lef side which is wrong.

    How can I adjust the formula to auto correct the step over 360 in column in E?

    Kindest regards,
    Martin.

    Why not just let all the angles in all columns increase beyond 360 degrees, and take the result MOD 360 at the end?

    I.e., add 360 to D15:D30.

    Hi Thanks, I tried that too...but not accurate. The only way is get the result on the right is by doing it manually. I was just hoping because of my limited knowledge of Excel that someone on the forum would be able to crack it.

    Warmest regards,
    Martin.

    Perhaps try this formula in F3 copied down

    =F2+IF(F2+ABS(E3-E2)>360,360-D2+D3,ABS(E3-E2))
