    Latest non blank cell value

    Hi,

    I have a case, when I have a range of months which has its own coreposning amount.

    for example year 2012, which has its 12 months spread horizontally and each month has its value, home months, are missing amount for example there is aamount in january or february, but not in other months, I need to extract from this rows the latest non blank cell. not the last cell and not the first one, but the latest no blank cell.

    for example one row has amount in January and March, and another in february and august, I need the latest amount from each one, in first case from AMrch and in second case from August.

    please help, if needed I will upload a sample file..

    Re: Latest non blank cell value

    Yes I opned it but As I mentioned im my first post I need the latest value, not the last value, the formulas which are provided in the web page, return the last non-blank cell in row range. for example only from December 2012.

    Interesting, can you do some explain.Thank you.
    =LOOKUP(2,1/(E4:P4<>0),E4:P4) --> why is 2?
    =LOOKUP(2,1/(E4:P4<>0),E4:P4) --> <> meaning?
    =LOOKUP(2,1/(E4:P4<>0),E4:P4) --> how to divide?
