    make cell in sheet2l = max columns from sheet1

    I'm between new to moderate with my ability to use functions in excel....probably means I'm a newbie to most.

    So I'm trying to find a way to make a cell in sheet2 = my maximum column that I have data entered from sheet1.

    Any help would be wonderful

    Thanks

    I apologize I meant my maximum row, not column.

    Modify zbor's formula to

    =LOOKUP(2,1/(Sheet1!A:A<>""),ROW(A:A))
    Life's a spreadsheet, Excel!

    Awesome thank you guys. It worked perfectly and I was able to modify the formula to work for rows instead.

    Two big thumbs up!

    @ SpaceDog30

    Based on your last post it seems that you are satisfied with the solution(s) you've received but you haven't marked your thread as SOLVED. I'll do that for you now but please keep in mind for your future threads that Rule #9 requires you to do that yourself. If your problem has not been solved you can use Thread Tools (located above your first post) and choose "Mark this thread as unsolved".
    Thanks.
