Default How to capture the cell above

It seems that Interval1 ends from a user input time and is plotted in ..1s intervals. So it takes 2s/.1s for Interval 1 to elapse. That is 20. So interval 1 will end 20 cells below the start time cell. If the start time cell is D14, then the end cell is D34.

Sub Interval_1()
Dim MyVal As Variant
Dim intrvl1 As Long, CellCnt As Long

intrvl1 = Range("C4").Value 'user input cell
CellCnt = intrvl1 / 0.1
MyVal = Cells(14 + CellCnt, 4).Value '14 is start row
End Sub

I am trying to wirte a sheet that will plot position vs time for two different time intervals, but I need to capture a value when it changes from interval 1 to interval 2. In the case below, I need to capture the 5, but it won't always be in that cell.

I'd really apprecitate any suggestions. THANKS!!


This worksheet will plot position vs. time and velocity vs. time for two time intervals up to
100 seconds.

Time 1 From 0 sec to: 2.00 sec
Time 2 From 2s to: 50.00 sec

Starting position: 50.0 m
Starting velocity: -22.50 m/s

Acceleration from 0 to 2s: 0.00 m/s^2
Acceleration from 2s to 50s: 5.00 m/s^2

time (s) position(m)
Interval 1 0 50
Interval 1 0.1 47.75
Interval 1 0.2 45.5
Interval 1 0.3 43.25
Interval 1 0.4 41
Interval 1 0.5 38.75
Interval 1 0.6 36.5
Interval 1 0.7 34.25
Interval 1 0.8 32
Interval 1 0.9 29.75
Interval 1 1 27.5
Interval 1 1.1 25.25
Interval 1 1.2 23
Interval 1 1.3 20.75
Interval 1 1.4 18.5
Interval 1 1.5 16.25
Interval 1 1.6 14
Interval 1 1.7 11.75
Interval 1 1.8 9.5
Interval 1 1.9 7.25
Interval 1 2 5
Interval 2 2.1
Interval 2 2.2
