Default Vlookup with variable column reference

Help!
I am trying to link two workbooks with a vlookup that searches for the last
populated columns' entry in a range (see example below).

27/03 28/03 29/03 30/03 31/03
Data 6 4

Is there a way of doing this in a function? In a macro I would use the
Range().End(xltoleft) code but I cannot figure out how to do something
similar in a worksheet function. I basically want the lookup column to start
at day 31 and make its way backwards until it finds a value. Another issue is
that the seemingly blank cells contain formula - ie. not empty.

Any ideas?

Thanks!! Jen
