Hello - I am looking to determine an average between dates based off of criteria. i thought i could do it simply but running into a roadblock. The elapsed time is just from the previous occurence with the last record from the last record to today. I dont want to add any other columns i would like to keep this simplistic so reaching out for help if there was a way i could still accomplish this. When i add a new record i move the today formula down and drag the other (prev - current) down 1. Thanks in advance.

Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
I am unsure about simplicity, but I think I found a way. There are likely other ways that are more elegant...LOL. It seems to work and there is no need for the "today" calculation at the bottom of the data.

Hope that helps,
