    Question How do I do this without doing a manual formula each time?

    Columns A-O is the information that is dumped into Excel from our accounting program. Column Q & R is formulas that I have already put in.

    What I need is:
    In column S, if the Balance is less than the Insurable Amt, then the Balance would go in column S next to the Balance Amt that is there. If the Balance is more than the Insurable Amt, then the Insurable Amt would go in column S next to the Balance Amt.

    In column T, if the Balance is less than the Insurable Amt, then 0 would go in column T. If the Balance is more than the Insurable Amt, then the ABS of Balance - Insurable Amt would go in column T.

    I could do this if there was the same number of lines between the insurable amt and balance, but each customer is different, so I have no idea.

    TIA

    With the added formula, you get a name on all rows.

    Can you solve the rest yourself?
    Notice my main language is not English.

    I appreciate it, if you reply on my solution.

    If you are satisfied with the solution, please mark the question solved.

    No, this doesn't help me at all that I can see. You added a column (A) and put a formula in there, but how does that help me with the insurable amount and uninsurable amount?

    Uses same-row, non-blank column Q cell to trigger IF[value_if_true]; blank if else.
    [value_if_true] uses same-row column O cell as reference for OFFSET.
    OFFSET[rows] uses MATCH to find the number of rows to the next blank column O cell (within the next 21 row range as written; increase if necessary).... then -1 for the cell immediately above that next blank cell.
