Default retrieve the last value in a column - JulieD

to retrieve the last value in a column
=LOOKUP(2,1/(-E1:E10<0),E1:E10)

Where A1:A10 is the range you're interested in.

Cheers
JulieD

Could someone explain the mechanics of the first two arguments in this
formula? I realize that Julie's comment referenced the wrong range in the
formula, but what is Excel doing when it reads this?
