I would suggest keeping it simple to start with - it's tempting to go
for a long formula that spans 10 lines of code, but it's a nightmare
to debug !

So I would suggest something like (please check the syntax, I might
have got the IF statement wrong) :

i1=v1,UN,0,v1,IF
i2=v2,UN,0,v2,IF
total=i1,i2,+,i3,+, .... in,+

Of course you could start combining stuff, one way being by simple
substitution :

total=v1,UN,0,v1,IF,v2,UN,0,v2,IF,+,v3,UN,0,v3,IF, + ... in=vn,UN,0,vn,IF,+


Or you could break down your running total as :

t1=v1,UN,0,v1,IF
t2=v2,UN,0,v2,IF,t1,+
t3=v3,UN,0,v3,IF,t2,+


Where v1 .. vn are your data values.
