Default Copy information from the bottom

I am running a large purchase order log on excel 03. I would like to have the
information from the bottom of the log (the newest entry) copy to an actual
purchase order on another worksheet in the same workbook. This way I could
print off an order after I enter each log. Since the bottom of the log is
always going further down is this possible? And is it possible for this to
work vice versa?

Thanks!

If the column contains numbers, then you need:

=LOOKUP(10^307,'Sheet1'!A:A)

If it contains text you need:

=LOOKUP(REPT("z",255),'Sheet1'!A:A)

The cell with this formula will always show the last value in column
A:A of Sheet1
