I have 6 columns of data. Each column will have N as its value except for 1 of them (it could be in a different spot every time). I want to return the value of the one cell that doesn't have the N in it in the 7th column with a formula. So for example:

ABCDEF
NNNZNN

so in this case, in column H I would want the value returned by the formula to be Z

Thanks in advance for your help!
