I have been instructed to minimize using VBA in a spreadsheet, yet I think this may be the only option...

So, I'm trying to multiply and sum a production profile (call it A2:A500) each time B2:B500 is an integer which changes over time. How can I sum these production values whilst still keeping the production profile continuous yet restarting at each new integer?

I hope this request is even legible...

It's legible...not really intelligible, though. Can you give an example?

No problem...

I have a production profile: 100,90,85,70...

Integers are based on time: 0,0,0,1,0,0,8,6...

So, I would like to multiply the production profile by the integer and carry that continuous production profile, while also adding in the additional multiplied production profiles that start later in the sequence.

Still not sure what you want to do, but does SUMPRODUCT help?

SUMPRODUCT may be the answer if you want the total of all of those products added into a single cell. Otherwise, why can you just multiply across the production and the integer and get a product in another column? I think that we may need to have a bit more information to get to the answer.
