Default Find latest value in a series.

Hi
I have 4 rows of data.
Row 1 = Months of the year, Jan, Feb etc
Row 2 = target Values
Row 3 Actual Values
Row 4 Amber Values (vary between 80-90% of target)

I am creating a graph on separate tab and as a summary would like to bring
back the latest value on each row.
So if i complete for July, the summary will show me Target Actual and Amber
in 3 diff cells next to graph for July. If i plug in Aug data, the summary
changes to that data.

I have had a play with various methids, but cant cracki t.
Hopefully i have explained ok for all,
Can anyone help?
Many Thanks
Matt

TM's formula will return the last (rightmost) numeric value from row 1.

If that's what you wanted then just change the range reference to suit your
application. For example:

=LOOKUP(1E100,Sheet1!D5:J5)
