RunTime code problem
 

Cannot get this code to work.

Using =RunTime(XXXX) in the cells to obtain the time it took from one
point to another point. Want to get the time down to minutes and seconds

This is how the cols look and how it will work.

Row 10 0:00:00 0:00:00 14:44:54 14:55:55 0:11:01

The start point is based on the first cell to have a time enter into it
and the RunTime is based on the cell before the RunTime cell.

RunTime code problem
 

How about just a worksheet formula dragged down the column?

In E7:
=MAX(A7:D7)-MIN(IF(A7:D70,A7:D7))
(ctrl-shift-enter instead of just enter)
This is an array formula and excel will wrap the formula with curly brackets {}
if you do it correctly.

(format the cell in your favorite time format)

RunTime code problem
 

One thing with a userdefined function is that you'd want to pass it the cells
that should cause the function to reevaluate.

Alternatively, you could put application.volatile at the top of your code and
everytime excel recalcs, your function would be recalculated.

So my worksheet function would need to have both the label range and the time
range passed to it, like:

=runtime($A$5:$D$5,A7:D7)
(the $'s mean that I can drag it down and $a5:$d$5 won't change.)

My code would look like this:

Option Explicit

Function RunTime(labelRng As Range, timeRng As Range) As Variant

Dim iCtr As Long
Dim startTime As Double
Dim endTime As Double

Const c1 = "Bus Departs at", c2 = "Stop #" 'this defines the Start Time

If labelRng.Cells.Count < timeRng.Cells.Count Then
RunTime = "Cell Count Mismatch!"
Exit Function
ElseIf labelRng.Areas.Count < 1 _
Or timeRng.Areas.Count < 1 Then
RunTime = "Too many areas!"
Exit Function
ElseIf Application.Count(timeRng) < timeRng.Cells.Count Then
RunTime = "Non-Numeric Data in TimeRng!"
Exit Function
End If

'no checks for labels like starttime?????
'maybe looking for that string is not necessary, huh?
With timeRng
endTime = .Cells(.Cells.Count).Value
If endTime = 0 Then
RunTime = 0
Exit Function
End If
End With

startTime = 0
For iCtr = 1 To timeRng.Cells.Count
If (InStr(1, labelRng.Cells(iCtr), c1, vbTextCompare) 0 _
Or InStr(1, labelRng.Cells(iCtr), c2, vbTextCompare) 0) _
And timeRng.Cells(iCtr) 0 Then
startTime = timeRng.Cells(iCtr).Value
Exit For
End If
Next iCtr

If startTime = 0 Then
RunTime = 0
Exit Function
End If

RunTime = endTime - startTime

End Function

The formatting for the cell doesn't come from your function. It comes from the
way you formatted the cell. So I just dropped all that stuff and subtracted the
two times. As long as you have the cell formatted correctly, it'll look nice.

It seemed to work in light testing. But I think I may have used a bigger
worksheet formula or even some helper cells to break it into pieces.

The problem I can see with yours is I will have anywhere from 3 to 10
RunTime cols on a sheet.

Start of a trip can fall in between some of the RunTime cols.

I want all Runtime cols to be fill in when there is a Stop # cell beside
it that has a time in it. I want the cumulated time in the cell from
start of first time that is enter not from RunTime to RunTime.

I guess I was not clear on numbers of RunTime cols.

The script I have allows for this change from row to row as well where
the first stop time cell is.

The script work find when it use 1408.55 as time, but using 14:08:55
with Time Quick enter script I get #name and not sure where I goof
making the change.

Also, I had to keep changing the location of Departs at col from book to
book that end up causing problem, that is why I built a new templet so
all books started off the same and end the same with middle section been
deleted where it had to be. I little more thought went into the templet
compare to build a new book as I went along.

I never plan to get this involved with this project, but since I am now,
better do it right now.

<snip
The problem I see is "Bus Departs at" will always be in col O (15) all
the time for "Stop #" can be anywhere between col T to DD depending on
the book. Some have only 25 "Stop #" will other may have up to 55.
Placing RunTime various from numbers for them to locations of them in
various books.

I want to know how long it took from first record time to the last
record time requiring a RunTime. Runtime is use to calculate the
operating cost of the bus. So I would have something like this:

Col O R S Z AA AD AE BB BC
Depart Stop Run Stop Run Stop Run Stop Run
0:00:00 0:00:00 0:00:00 0:00:00 0:00:00 0:00:00 0:00:00 0:00:00
0:00:00

01:09:11
Cells are formatted as 15:13:00 using 24 clock.

All I had to do with my script was use =RunTime(xx) in the cell I wanted
a RunTime enter.

Want to make sure on the first 2 before I start building 160 books and
about 200 rows per book min.

Just making sure on your =RunTime($O$6:$dd$6,O7:DE7) Row 6 has the text
info, row 7 to 200 will have the data.

RunTime code problem
 

Try it with some test data to see if it works. In fact, keep both versions.
Call one =runtime() and the other =runtime2().

Then put the same data in consecutive rows with =runtime() in the odd and
=runtime2(). Make a few changes to the data and watch the functions
recalculate.
