Try this array formula** :

=MAX(IF(A1:A100="A",ROW(A1:A100)))

** 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.

Hi everybody,

I need to now how I can get the last Row number of last occurance of an
item
in a list, for example:
