Hi, I am trying to find the last entry of a column, in order to add /
subtract from other sums. Is there a way to do this? the work-around
using
is:

using a work column: =IF($G5="",$G4,0)
and entering 0 in unused rows, then can use: SUM(H4:H26)-$O$30
can I replace that with something else, and get rid of the work column?
thanks
