Hi Guys,

Im new here and was wondering if someone could help me please.

So the sheet contains the times of booking slots. eg 12:45,13:00,13:15,13:30, these times can be anywhere in the row. So the first time would be the start time of the booking and the last time would be the end of the booking. So if there is 4 time slots essentially they are booking 45min of timeslots between the times. I am looking for a formula or VBA that will give me the first and last times in order to read it into another sheet as a list of bookings.
So the cells EA and EB would say 12:45 and 13:30. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

Hi & welcome to MrExcel.
How about
VBA Code: 
Function Kazaard(Rng As Range) As Variant
   Dim Ary As Variant
   Dim i As Long, j As Long
   ReDim Ary(1 To Rng.Count)
   
   For i = 1 To Rng.Count
      If Rng(i) <> "" Then
         If i = 1 Or i = Rng.Count Then
            j = j + 1
            Ary(j) = Rng(i)
         ElseIf Rng(i - 1) = "" Or Rng(i + 1) = "" Then
            j = j + 1
            Ary(j) = Rng(i)
         End If
      End If
   Next i
   ReDim Preserve Ary(1 To j)
   Kazaard = Ary
End Function

Hi Fluff,

Thank you very much for the prompt response, that looks like it does exactly what I wanted it to do. How would I apply this to another set of data after so say if I had another time allocation slots after the current booking slots for a different event (on the left)and had booking times at the end, In total I am looking to book 3 events so it will be x3 so it will be the same format with the times and booking times at the end one after the other.

I'm afraid I don't understand what you are asking. Can you post some sample data along with expected outcome.

Sheet1


Hi sorry for being unclear, so the format would be something like the above, so the first exmaple would be pretty much the finished version as there are times 08:00-18:00 and 5 booking slots. The above is the simplified version where ive only shown the times of 15:00-17:15 and 3 booking slots. I cant seem to upload the full sheet only small snipets on here.

Many Thanks in advance.

With that layout you would use
Excel Formula: 
=Kazaard(A8:J8)
in K8 & then
Excel Formula: 
=Kazaard(Q8:Z8)
in AA8.
Or have I misunderstood.

Thank you very much that makes sense, I take it I would declare this at the bottom of your formula and substitute the line "Kazaard=Ary" with all the above mentioned.

Many Thanks

No you don't need to change the UDF, you just feed it the cells you want it to look at, like I showed.
