EDIT: Grist now has a suite of cumulative functions for fetching previous values (and more).

Hi Ralph,
Accessing data from previous records is an issue that doesn’t always have the most elegant solution, but there are ways to do it.
I created a quick example to achieve what I think you’re looking here. What I do is seed an initial value (250) and then in subsequent rows look for the previous row’s “New Value”.
