FIND LAST CELL WITH DATA
I am trying to display the last entry in a column. I am using the following
formula: =LOOKUP(9.99999999999999E+307,E6:E4000) My result shows up as zero if cell E4000 has nothing in it. I am looking for a formula the looks at the entire E column and displays the value of the last cell with a number in it. |

Here's a macro that will do it and show the value in a message box, is
this what you needed? Sub LastValue() Dim Mycell As Object For Each Mycell In Range("E:E") If Mycell.Value = "" Then MsgBox Mycell.Offset(-1, 0) Exit Sub End If Next End Sub Sandy sharon wrote: I am trying to display the last entry in a column.

No, that doesn't work either. It still shows a zero.

No. I have a spreadsheet that tracks a running balance in column E. At the
top of the spreadsheet I want it to display the most current balance by picking up the last entry in the column.

Here's an array formula that should work:
=INDIRECT("E" & MAX(IF(ISBLANK(E1:E10000),"",ROW(E1:E10000)))) Don't forget to press Ctrl+Shift+Enter Charles Chickering sharon wrote: I am trying to display the last entry in a column.

Hi Sharon
It depends upon the formula you are using for showing the balance in column E. If the result of the formula =0 because some other criterion has not been met, then your formula may show 0 as being the last value. If the cells below the what you regard as being the last value are blank, then your Lookup formula will return the correct value. For example =IF(D7<"",E6+D7,0) as opposed to =IF(D7<"",E6+D7,"") The first case will return 0, the second case will return the value of the last cell in the range containing a value as opposed to being null -- Regards Roger Govier "sharon" wrote in message ...

When I enter this formula it displays the value in cell E220. However, the
last cell with a balance is E225.

What value does
=LOOKUP(2,1/(E6:E4000<""),E6:E4000) in contrast to =LOOKUP(9.99999999999999E+307,E6:E4000) which appears to return a real 0? sharon wrote: Worked like a charm!!! Thanks!!!!!

< Lookup(L:L,E:E) should return the data in the last cell of column E.
That said, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and I don't know why. -- -PHOnos "sharon" wrote: I am trying to display the last entry in a column.

My result shows up as zero if cell E4000 has nothing in it. That formula ignores empty cells (unless *every* cell in the range is empty). If you're getting a result of 0 then 0 is the last number in the range but you may have turned off 0 display or maybe there's a custom/conditional format set to hide 0s. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "PHOnos" wrote in message ... < Lookup(L:L,E:E) should return the data in the last cell of column E.
