Default Array function does not seem to work

ctrl-shift-enter and an error came up and C1000,LARGE was highlighted.

Do you use semi-colon separator or comma? If so change the , to ;

Thanks Bernard, but no the same error appeared, which suggests to me its
not
the formula, but something in excel, what do you think, and any ideas what
I
can test?

Not sure what you are doing but I wonder if the formula should be
=INDEX(C1:C1000,LARGE(IF(C1:C1000<"",ROW(C1:C1000 )),2))
the change being just after IF(

Over the last few days, I have sought and received help from the
community.
The help has been with formulas requiring array answers.
Each time I try the cntr-shift-enter, an error appears in the middle of
the
formula. e.g Mike gave me this fomula
=INDEX(C1:C1000,LARGE(IF(C1000<"",ROW(C1:C1000)), 2)) I used the
ctrl-shift-enter and an error came up and C1000,LARGE was highlighted.
I
then
went on to the array learning module, and entered an array formula for
part
of that study, and again an error message appeared with a similar part
of
their function highlighted as an error. Anyone suggest solution?
