Yes - but you don't say what the controlling factor might be. There 
must be some aspect of the list that indicates the point at which you 
want the totals to stop. Instead of using
=X100-X99
you need something like
=IF(condition;X100-X99;"")
with "condition" being something like A100>0 or A100<>"" - referring 
to whichever column shows how far you want your values to be calculated.
