    I'm trying to get the last value of the last non-empty cell in a column

    Hello,
    I'm trying to get the last value of the last non-empty cell in a column!
    = LOOKUP (2; 1 / (A: A <> ""); A: A) the function works well for a column whose data is entered manually! The problem is when the cells in the column are formulas - then the result is 0
    So how do we get the last numeric value from this column, knowing that all the cells in the column are formulas?


    Thanks a lot !

    See if this works for you:

    =LOOKUP(2;1/(A:A<>0);A:A)

    If not, there are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook.
