data averages following If/then in excel

**Nazzo07** · 07-22-2012, 01:56 PM

For the attached excel example i am looking to have a script that will take the truncated time info from column L and average it under certain circumstances.

For each occurance of data type 3 in column D, use the data from the next occurance of data 12 (ie: L3-L2 then L10-L9, noting that L64-L61).

Next on the same token; For each occurance of data type 12, use the data from the next data type 13 (ie: L8-L3 then L15-L10)

Any help would be greatly appreciated and any additional info needed please ask.

Thanks

If I understand what you want, I have what you want. In the workbook attached, column M is a list of time values for the information in column L to facilitate the calculations. Column N has the data for data types 3 and 12. Column O has the data for types 12 and 13. The entries on the first rows of these columns are a count of how many data points there will be, and the rest of the entries are the time differences. Row 2 of column N is the difference between the time associated with the first occurrence of data type 3 and the next of type 12. The last row of column N is the difference between the final occurrence of data type 3 and the next of type 12. Similar idea with column O.

This is what the code to generate the values for the N column looks like:

Thank you! This works perfectly in the example you sent. Unfortunately I can not get the macro to run in my full data sheet of compiled monthly data. I am only trying to get it running on 1 sheet for now. I tell it to run and it sits and stares at me blankly. Any advice on how to finish this up?
