Barb,

The Analysis TookPak included with Excel has a
"Descriptive Statistics" function that generates information like
the following. The data was from a column of test scores.
You must first checkmark Analysis Tool Pak in Tools | Add-ins.

Are there any tests for Normality in Excel? I've used other statistical
packages and currently don't have access to them. Does Excel have this type
of capability and if it does, how do I use it?

Thanks,
