Find Nonblank Cell
Is there a function that will find the first non blank cell in an array, like
returning cell address, or position in the array? |
Find Nonblank Cell
="A"&MATCH(TRUE,A1:A10<"",0)

Find Nonblank Cell
=INDEX(B1:B10,MIN(IF(B1:B10<"",ROW(B1:B10))))
which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not just Enter. Excel will automatically enclose the formula in braces (curly brackets), do not try to do this manually. When editing the formula, it must again be array-entered. -- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "Mike" wrote in message ...

Well, the match part I just figured out. That just returns the position in
the array. I'll have to do some extra work to turn that into an address. Thanks.

Why do you want to find the address (btw look at the ADDRESS function)?
If you want the value just use INDEX and MATCH -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Mike" wrote in message ... Well, the match part I just figured out. That just returns the position in the array.
