Default Get number of rows that data uses, including blank rows

I have a column which contains numeric values. Some rows may NOT contain a
value (ie: they're blank).

Short of filling in all the blanks with 0's, how might I be able to get the
ROW number of the final data entry?

To explain further, I am using the following formula:

=SUM(OFFSET(A1,0,0,COUNTA(A:A)))

This allows me to sum all the values in column A, using A1 as a reference
point, and making the range depth the value of the non-blank cells found by
COUNTA. Problem is, if there are blank values in between non-blank values,
the offset doesn't include those, and therefore the range depth is smaller
than the row number of the final data entry.

Hopefully, by obtaining the ROW number, I'll be able to specify that as the
offset value, as opposed to using COUNTA().

I hope I've put this clearly enough. (I've tried to keep the concept basic -
the actual formula that it will apply to is way to long and beyond the scope
of this posting)

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

Denham.
