The normal distribution is not skewed.

The gamma distribution is skewed, and Excel will calculate its probability
density function.

Checked XL help for 'gamma distribution' (w/o the quotes)?

Check Jerry's reply for whether the gamma distribution is the same as the
normal distribution. One *cannot* be skewed, the other can be.
