Default Return Text from a row of 20+ columns

Hi guys,

I have a table of about 30 columns. In each row, only one cell of the 30 has
text in it. What I would like to do is add a column (say AE) and have a
formula that looks through column AA1:AD1, finds the cell with text and
returns it in AE1.

I thought it might be something simple, but I have gottne myself turned
around and before I craft some frankenstein spreadsheet, I thought I would
ask for help.

Thanks,
P
