Hello fellow excel enthusiasts 😊
I’m stuck trying to figure out a working formula or creating a better method to use, and was hoping that someone might be able to lend a hand, please.

I have a table, detailing the amount of water that has been consumed (in ml) thought the day, marked at hourly intervals, in column (I).
Column (J), records the time that the drink bottle was refilled with water. (I also have placed a small spot under the table to record this info, if that may work better for a formula)
My problem is, I don’t know how to be able to calculate the sum total of liquid that has been drank between the bottle refill times.​
For example, the total amount of water that has been consumed between the start of the day, 00:00:00, and the 1st bottle refill time at, 07:38:00, would be = 1,202ml.
Following from that, the total amount of water consumed between the 1st bottle refill time and the 2nd bottle refill time at, 11:02:00, would be = 1,188ml.​
Further, between the 2nd refill time, 11:02:00, and the 3rd refill time, 15:00:00, would be = 1,264ml. And so one so forth.​
I had tried playing around with combining if & sumifs statements, but couldn’t really think of the right direction to use.​

I’d love to hear any ideas anyone has and would greatly appreciate any help provided.
Many thanks in advance and Merry Christmas!! 🎄

If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
You could try:

Excel Formula:
=SCAN(0,J111:J134,LAMBDA(a,x,IF(OFFSET(x,-1,1)="",a+x,x)))

Cell J137:

=TOROW(K111:K134,1)

Cell J138:
Excel Formula:
=LET(
xl,XLOOKUP(J137#,K111:K134,L111#),
HSTACK(xl,SUM(J111:J134)-SUM(xl)))

Hi Georgiboy,
Thanks for the reply :)
I've just realised that I messed up my OP, sorry.

I was meant to say that, In column K, I would like to be able to find the sum total of water drank, thats recorded in column I, between the bottle refill times listed in, column J.
At the moment in coloum K, I'm simply manually summing the range between the refill times.

I wasn't really too sure how best to word my question, but hopefully I've made a little more sense.
Cheers :)

I thought that is what he SCAN formula I posted was doing, it creates a running total in column K that will then reset each time it see's a value in column J, therefore summing the values up to each refill point.
The only difference is the formula I have created makes a running total up to that refill point. But the value in cells K118, K122, K126, K130 will be the same as you have above.

Where I put:
Cell L111:
I should have put K111.

Maybe try clearing out column K and putting the below in K111:
Excel Formula:
=SCAN(0,J111:J134,LAMBDA(a,x,IF(OFFSET(x,-1,1)="",a+x,x)))

The other formulae were simply to catch the values from the above formula to create what you have in rows 137:138

You sir are a genius and have saved me a lot of time in validation!!
I was using excel on my phone and had missed a few things in your earlier answer. But everything in your first formulas was all working tip top!! :)

Thanks again & Merry Christmas & a Happy NY 🎄 🎆
