Find the Last Cell in a Row and Replace the value

**A_K** · 03-29-2013, 04:18 AM

Hi,

I need to be able to

1) find the last filled cell in the row
2) replace the value in that cell with a certain text ("YES")

I am not sure where to start and what formula/function to apply.

Could you please help?

Thank you!

To find the last used cell in a range(example A1:M1)-row, you can use something like this.

=LOOKUP(2,1/(A1:M1<>""),A1:M1)

I don't think that you could replace the value in a cell using formulas. Maybe with VBA...

1) find the last filled cell in the row

Is this one row or multiple rows in the file?

Hi,

There are multiple (2000) rows in a file. And the last cell is different for each column.
