    Hello swk98s17,

    There are no intrinsic array functions to this. You will have to loop through the array elements and check each one. When you find a zero element then exit the loop.

    Sincerely,
    Leith Ross

    =INDEX(A1:A10, MATCH(TRUE, A1:A10<>0, 0))

    ... entered as an array formula (confirmed with Ctrl+Shift+Enter instead of Enter), and adjust range as required.
