I need a formula that will look in a specific column on the same row as it is currently on for a value. If there is no value in that cell, it will look at the cell above it in that column for the value... if no value, up another cell until it find a value.
Example: I have the value 200 in cell A10 and no data in cells A11:A15 (all are empty cells). In B15, I want to have a formula that looks in A15 first... if no data, then it basically does an END-UP to find the first cell that is not empty above it (which would be A10 in this case) and get the value from it.
** I need this to be a formula... I could write a VBA function to do this without problem. Also, it cannot be as simple as writing a bunch of nested IF statements, as the first value it comes to could be 100 rows above.
Hope this makes sense... and I hope someone has an idea! I would certainly appreciate it!
