Default Excel 2007 Analysis Toolpak

LINEST is the calculation engine for the ATP regression tool. Results
identically match those produced from LINEST in the same version. Results
differ between Excel 2003 and earlier versions in exactly the same way that
LINEST results differ, even though ATP was not updated in 2003.

If you will indicate the regression tool items that you do not know how to
calculate from LINEST, perhaps I can enlighten you.

That is most definitely not true. There are a whole host of statistics and
significance levels that are done by the regression tool that would have to
be constructed manually using multiple functions.

Many (all?) functions from ATP have become worksheet functions, but the
regression tool in ATP is not a function. All output of the ATP regression
tool is either given by or is easily computed from the output of the LINEST
worksheet function.

Where are the data analysis functions of the Analysis Toolpak in Excel 2007?
I cannot find them anywhere? Not in the Data tab, not in the Formulas tab.
