Re: No regression line formulas in Office.org calc

[Major Seery <mseery@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the tips. I can't generally use the linest function as most of 
the data I work with are not linear, but rather log or exponential 
functions. I checked out the R project site and it looks interesting, 
though a bit esoteric for my needs and mathematical ability. Anyway I'll 
download their program to see if I can figure it out.
