Default find last value in list

Bob,

In case you are interested, I have started my own thread (LOOKUP) based on this. I have discovered something interesting but quite lost.

By the way, thank you for explaining global naming.

(If you want to ignore 0, then just try

=LOOKUP(2,1/A1:A1000,A1:A1000)

Thanks for the assistance Carim, but Max will only give me the largest

value
if I remember correctly.

Thanks also to Bob, I changed the "" to 0, which ignored all the zero

values
in my list, and it worked !
Thanks again, truly appreciated.

set A100 as high as you are ever likely to need

I am trying to find the last entered value in a list of basic weight

data.
I
enter new numeric values to the list on a daily basis, but would like

to
always show the last entered value in another cell also.
Please help !
