Try this array formula** :
=INDEX(C2:C13,MATCH(1E100,INDEX(D2:AH13,0,MAX(IF(D 2:AH13<"",COLUMN(D2:AH13)-COLUMN(D2)+1)))))
Curious about this:
Cells D1:AJ1 have years 2006:2038.
According to that your table extends to column AJ yet the formula you posted
only covers up to column AH.

The closest I came is when I used the rng D2:AH13, D2 vice D1 and I pushed
Ctrl+Shift+Enter at the end of the formula . it still came up with a month
of
Feb "which was wrong" and would not change when I entered another figure
within the table.

Cells D1:AJ1 have years 2006:2038. Cells C2:C13 have Jan thru Dec.
Cell A4
has the array formula
=LOOKUP(9.999999999999E+307,INDEX(D2:AH13,0,MAX(IF (D2:AH13<"",COLUMN(D2:AH13)-COLUMN(D2)+1))))
,showing the last figure entered in the table. Note: I had to push
Ctrl+Shift+Enter to execute the formula. How do I enter into cell
BC16 the
Month corresponding to the last figure entered in D2:AH13 from column
C?
