I enter weekly data into a spreadsheet with a summary page at the front.
After every week, when new data is entered, I want the formula at the front
to use the cell with the new data instead of me having to change the existing
formula.

For example, my data looks like this:

A B C
276
300
421
175
0
0
0

I need a formula that will automatically detect the last number 0 in column
C.

Thank you for your assistance!

=Countif(C2:C1000,"0")

so your main page formula might be something like:

=indirect("'Sheet2'!C" & Countif(Sheet2!C2:C1000,"0")

(untested, watch for spelling errors or typos)

what i have now is:

=b4/(IF(Paul!D130,"1","0")+IF(Trish!D130,".6","0")+I F(Ryan!D130,"1","0")+IF(Kathy!D130,"1","0")+IF(A pril!D130,"1","0"))

Ideally, I want a formula to detect a new number in a column and if it's 0,
to enter "1", if 0, enter "0".

I'm trying to make this report as automated as possible.

Assuming there are no negative numbers and there are no empty cells *within*
the range.

=INDEX(C2:C20,COUNTIF(C2:C20,"0"))

Hi,

You may try this

=LOOKUP(TRUE,C2:C80,C2:C8)

Substitute the "N" for your column and also adjust the ranges.

I should have stated this is an ARRAY formula and needs the Cntrl-Alt-
Enter
