Hello I am entering data on a sheet each day and analyzing it on a separate
sheet. Many of the formulas i use need to reference the newest entries. Can
anyone tell me the function you use so that the formula automatically uses
the last entry in a column (so that all i need to do is key in the data each
day.

Look at the OFFSET function. The row offset would be a COUNT or COUNTA of
the entire column for which you wish to find the last entry. This of course
requires that there are no blank rows in the data.

Try this:

=LOOKUP(2,1/(1-ISBLANK(A1:A1000)),A1:A1000)

Will work with blank cells within the column, but don't use entire column
references (A:A).
