Hi, I'm looking for a formula that will return a reference of the last column that contains a value greater than zero.

Many thanks

Excel Facts

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.
For example:
Excel Formula:
=MAX(IF(A1:ZZ30>0,COLUMN(A1:ZZ30),""))
To be confirmed using the combination Contr-Shift-Enter, not Enter alone

This will return the column number of the last column, looking in the first 700 columns of the first 30 lines
