    Post Need a function to give the last row number/cell number

    I am trying to get the last row which is filled based on column B. I mean i have data in a sheet in which (for example B45 is the last filled row because it is merged with C45, D45 etc). So, I want to get that B45 to be the result if I put the formula in D100.

    I ope I am clear. I dont want the data in B45 but I want the result to be B45.

    Try

    ="B"&MATCH(LOOKUP(2,1/(B1:B10000<>""),B1:B10000),B1:B10000,0)

    Lookup() will return the wrong result if there are duplicates in the column.

    Try this

    Or this, but be aware ADDRESS() is volatile.
