Thanks ahead of time Excel gurus.. Effectively I have a spreadsheet where I have columns that allow the selection of some info and then based on that info I want the function to come along to a certain cell.. search upwards in the column until it finds the last non-empty cell ... From there I am simply going to increment that cell by one to create my ascending serial numbers. I've also put a pic in if that helps explain what i want to do .
