Try this array formula** :

=SUM(AF2:INDEX(B2:AF2,LARGE((COLUMN(B2:AF2)-COLUMN(B2)+1)*(B2:AF2<""),8)))

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER). Hold down both the CTRL key and the
SHIFT
key then hit ENTER.

That will sum the last 8 entries in the range. If there are less than 8
entries it will sum whatever's there.

Adjust for the correct end of range. I've assumed AF2 would be for the
last
day of the month in a 31 day month.

What you just stated is correct. To make myself clear,
I would need the data for the following:
July 28, July 29, July 30, July 31,....Aug 4. Then
Tomorrow's data would be from July 29..............Aug 5.

Not sure what the significance of today's date has to do with it.

If you enter data daily then from tomorrows date to the end of the
month
there will be no data. Is that correct? If so, then don't you just
need
the *last* 8 entries in the row? Also, today's date is 8/4 so there
aren't 8 entries for the month, right?

I have cols. for each day of the month starting with the 1st.. In col
A
is
the grand total of the last 8 days of data. How would I create a
formula
to
add the last 8 days of data automaticlly from todays date.
Ex. Col A...Col B........Col M
69 12 8.... 11
