    Help with IF (again)

    I have 4 columns

    Base Data; Better than Base; Even better Data; The Best Data: TOTAL

    In the TOTAL column I need to insert info - if the only data is Base then Base, if the data is Better than Base then Better, if the data is Even Better then Even Better, if The Best then The Best.


    ie

    Base Data; Better than Base; Even better Data; The Best Data: TOTAL
    75,000..............................................................................75,000
    79,000................................80,000.....................................80,000
    30,000.........................................................26,000............26,000


    Thanks

    If you are looking for the last entry in the row, then

    =LOOKUP(1,1/(A2:D2<>0),A2:D2)

    This works, but only if there is data to the immediate LEFT. If I have Base Data then The Best - It only gives me Base Data.
    ie if there are any blanks if ignores what is RIGHT of the blank!

    Are you looking for the maximum figure?

    =MAX(A2:D2)

    We have Base Data - as time progresses we get Better Data (moving left to right) however, this sometimes jumps a review and can go from Base Data to The Best Data. If that makes sense!

    Thanks

    So what you are looking for is the last actual "entered" data in that row?
