Help with a summary

K

Kristine

Hi all -
I hope I ask my question clearly..
I would like to make a summary of one spreadsheet on another in the same workbook. The problem is that I have weekly columns and I want the summary to reflect only the most current column, which is not an accumulated total of the previous weeks. Is there a way to: In Sheet1 ask Excel to "Show the furthest right column" from Sheet2? I tried to do a lookup function but it was getting far too messy and not really working the way that I had hoped

Any help is greatly appreciated
Thank you! Kristine

the trick is to put in a number that is higher than what you are looking
for. This will find the last entry in row 1.
=INDEX(Sheet2!1:1,1,MATCH(99999999999,Sheet2!1:1))

Thanks, Dan, but I've just realized that I indicated that I wanted one column of information for my summary when I actually want four: Customer Locations AWR Prospect Locations Opportunit

In my data spreadsheet these four columns just repeat for each week. Can I do this function to grab the four furthest columns to the right rather than just one?

You could use offset(,-3) for the first one -2, & -1
