=IF(COUNTBLANK(A1:A5)0, "check", "ok")

This is where the column runs into problems. The column will contain
blanks
after the completed data. The data compiles over a 24 hr time frame and
could contain as little as 1-2 cells in the column of data.I need a
formula
that will look at the current array of data and determine whether there
areany blanks.

You dont mention the method used to determine whether the cell "does not
have any data".

Try this:
=IF(ISBLANK(A1), "check", "ok")

I have a column of data that automatically updates every half hour. I
looking for a formula that will look at the column and determine if
there
is
a cell in that was not updated. For example, I have currently have
cells
1D:10D that should all be up to date, but cell 7D does not have any
data.
I
want cell 58D to display "Check". Here's where I run into a problem.
I
can't have any VB in this worksheet and the sheet is updating every
half
hour
with new data (filling in the next time slot). What formula do I use
for
this??

Thanks in advance for any insight into this.
