  • Using VBA/Macros, how can I extract the equation of a trendline in Excel?

    I've treid recording a macro that will create a line graph, create a trendline and disply it's equation on the graph...but I can't seem to extract that equation and place it in a cell. I've tried copying the text of the equation and pasting it on a cell (as part of the macro), but everytime I run it, it does not paste the equation on the cell. Is there anyone who can help me with this? Thanks.

    Example:

    A1:A8...

    1

    3

    7

    9

    15

    20

    28

    32

    From the line graph of the data, I can create a power regression trendline with the equation: y = 0.9821x^1.6868.

    I want that equation on cell B1 instead of on the chart without me having to manually copy and paste it on cell B1. Pls help me.

  • Nuclear or solar/wind power for a developing nation?

    Which are you for? Please be objective and look at all angles, not just the environmental factor.

    I'm talking about third-world countries here: widespread poverty, low GNP, weak industrial/manufacturing sector, etc.

  • With the same amount of money to invest in a nuclear powerplant, could it be spent on renewable energy...?

    With the same amount of money to invest in a nuclear (fission)powerplant, could it be spent on renewable energy (solar, wind, etc.) AND produce the same output? I do not have a concrete stand on nuclear energy simply because I want to look at it (and its alternatives) objectively...and I need more info. Obviously nuclear fission is less desirable in terms of safety and on envirnonmental protection, but does that really outweigh it's ECONOMIC value? I've always believe that people come first and if nuclear energy can help improve the economy of developing nations (and thus, in a way, poverty) then I'm all for it. Plus I know that solar energy is one of the most EXPENSIVE forms of energy in terms of output vs cost (you spend so much for so little output) so it may be unwise and impractical for poorer countries to invest in it. What are your thoughts?

  • Atheists: Has your realization of the "truth" made you a happier person / made your lives a little easier?

    Prove it.

    I've read and answered a lot of questions about religion and atheism here on Yahoo answers and I've noticed a trend: most (not all) of the atheist answers have a sense of bitterness and even anger in them. It sends out a message that people who convert to atheism are cynical, pessimistic and bitter with life and their former religion. This is just my observation, I do not mean to generalize. This question is not a contest between the believers and non-believers, but a simple discussion sparked by curiosity.

    Can any true atheist say how/why atheism has a positive effect on their PERSONAL lives?

    10 points to the most intelligent, unbiased answer.

  • Sorting in MS Excel?

    How do you sort numerical values (i.e. 1.5, 2.3, 7.6, 4.2, 3.1) WITHOUT using the automatic sorting ascending/descending functions of Excel? Is there a way to do it using formulas (i.e. IF, VLOOKUP, etc?). I will gladly give 10pts to the first one who can show me how. If you've got time, you can also send a sample sheet to my email add: biskwitmamaw@yahoo.com. THANKS!

    Everytime I protect a worksheet wherein some columns or row are grouped (using the Group function under the Data menu), I cannot press the little "-" or "+" button that expands/collapses the grouped columns/rows. Is there a way I can expend or collapse a column or row in a protected worksheet?

  • How to protect worksheet (Excel) using Macros?

    I am aware that Excel worksheet protection is weak and can be easily bypassed with free software. I've heard that it is possible to add an extra layer of protection by using Macros. I don't know how to use Macros and I am not good at programming (I don't understand VBA). Can anyone give me simple step-by-step instructions on how to protect my worksheet using Macros (or any method other than Excel's built-in worksheet protection)? Thank you. Objective: I want to give my Excel worksheets protection that will be very difficult for anyone to break.
