I would like to create a formula where I can copy a date entered in the last
cell of a row on the same spreadsheet.

I would like to insert the formula starting in C2. For example, in row 2 of
my spreadsheet, if cell H2 (last one) has a date, copy the date to C2. But
if H2 is blank, copy F2 to C2 if F2 has a date. But, if F2 is blank, copy D2
to C2 if D2 has a date. The cells I would like checked are not adjacent to
each other.



I hope this is makes sense. Please let me know if you need clarification.
Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks!

A date is a number in Excel, merely presented in a date format.

Accordingly

=LOOKUP(1E+307,D2:IV2)

will return the last numeric entry in row 2 to the right of cell C2. (For
Excel 2007, you may want to extend the range).
