Using the LastValue() function should do what you want. I'm not quite sure
where you're getting your "constant" from so there may be issues involved
that I'm unaware of. I know there can be problems when a constant has some
N/A bars associated with it, and LastValue() is the solution if that's the
case.

MyConstant:=LastValue("my  constant");

There are other tricks that can get around other issues that you may have so
even if the above suggestion doesn't work you shouldn't assume that all is
lost.
