Hi Prafull,

Rept :-  Rept function return a repeated text value a specified number of
times

you can also use lookup with Rept formula for last text
 "=LOOKUP(REPT("z",255),G10:G23)"

Rept :- Repeats text a given number of times. Use REPT to fill a cell with
a number of instances of a text string.

the reason for 255  : for repeated z's for the lookup value is to ensure
that the lookup value is large then any other text value in the range
reason for Z: -  "Z" character are largest value in number,text and also
special character (text your self enter all value (text,number,special
character then short)..


.........................

Enjoy
Team XLS
