Default Calculation Using "Most Current Data Entered"

Yeah, but that's in French. A first-time non-French speaking user probably
won't understand it.

How did you get that screencap up by the way?


I use a commercial product for that called Snagit.

Well worth it and very easy to use and setup.

Then I use a free image host:

You could also upload a sample file (with size restrictions) to a free
file host and then post the link to the file. I use this one often:

http://translate.google.com/translat...l%3Den%26lr%3D

It's a French site that gets translated to English. The file gets removed
after about 3 weeks.

Well, mine is vertical instead of horizontal, but yes, in this screencap
it
would be the right most value in any row. Exactly. How did you get
that
screencap up by the way? That would make things a lot easier. Thanks
so
much.

So, the most recent data would be the last (rightmost) numeric value in
the
row?

See if this screencap helps:

I am creating an inventory sheet for my business and I'm trying to get
Excel
to look through an inventory sheet, take the most recently entered
inventory
number, and divide it by the average daily sales to give me a "days
out"
number. I was going to just use an IF(D1<"",D1,IF(C1<"",C1...etc,
etc
but
the limit to embedded IF statements struck that possibility. I
figure
there
has to be an easier way anyway.

Sheet 1 is the summary page where it has each product name, average
daily
sales, and then the "days out" number. Sheet 2 has each product name
horizontally across the top and then the dates vertically on the left
for
a
daily inventory count. I just can't figure out a way to get Excel to
pull
the most current date's inventory number.

Any ideas?
