Function to search a row of data.
 

Greetings

I am looking for a formula that will search a row of data until it finds the
last data in the range i.e. a non-blank cell.

I have a report that is generated from data that is updated monthly into a
worksheet however, I want the report to update automatically after the
new-data is entered each month.

Any ideas?

One way:

=LOOKUP(2,1/(1-ISBLANK(A1:Z1)),A1:Z1)

Thanks for this however, the data is on a different worksheet then the one
where this formula resides. Where do I reference "sheet2"?

Try this:

=LOOKUP(2,1/(1-ISBLANK(Sheet2!A1:Z1)),Sheet2!A1:Z1)

What kind of data - numbers, dates, times, or just text?

Appreciate the feed-back.
