automatically get x y intersection from a chart
 

I am trying to find a formula to automatically return the x/y intersection on
a chart to a cell.

automatically get x y intersection from a chart
 

To provide some more background to what I'm trying to do. I need to
intersect a WT then match the CG to produce the KIAS where the WT and CG are
variables defined in a separate cell. I also need the formula to round...for
the sake of simplicity.

Ie: WT=2359, CG=39.8, KIAS= ?

I don't think you want to get it from the chart.

That doesn't sound like a chart in the Excel sense of the word. It sounds
more like a lookup table problem. You say you need the formula to round;
do you mean that on each of the lookups you want to round down, or round up,
or round to the nearest? ... or do you want to interpolate and round the
results?

You're correct. I was originally trying to use the chart data to extract the
answer. With Regression...considering I'm an excel newbie here, are you
referring to multiple regression? I've used VLOOKUP when I only had one
variable...with two I'm stumped...

David, Rounding to the nearest would work. What I need the formula to do is
look up a cell value A12 (for example), reference that value in the WT
column, then match a cell value in A13 (example), reference that value in CG
column, then find the match KIAS value.

Forgive my ignorance as I'm learning Excel on the fly here...thanks for the
help!

automatically get x y intersection from a chart
 

If you are willing to reorganize your data into a 2-way table (WT down a
column and CG across a row, or the other way around with the corresponding
KIAS values filling the grid), you can use the method documented at
Interpolation
http://www.tushar-mehta.com/excel/ne...ion/index.html

To quickly reorganize your data, create a PivotTable with WT as the row
field, CG as the column field and KIAS as the data field.

I did the above with the PT in J3:R21 and used the Interpolate2DArray
function with your example data point. The result was KIAS=44.75894737

The formula was =Interpolate2DArray(K5:Q20,J5:J20,K4:Q4,F25,H25) where F25
and H25 contained the specified WT and CG values.

Do note that because you have some holes (prominently, only one value for
WT=2950 and only 2 values for CG=46, your results will be very poor around
those data points.

Well, you definetly have figured it out...I on the other hand am trying to
catch up with you...

I've rearranged the data the way you suggested and I still get the #NA with
the formula. Not sure what I'm missing...Does the DATA field need to be in
Ascending order? thanks again!

You did add the VBA functions on the page I referenced, didn't you?

Also, you would have to adapt my example use of the UDF to suit the ranges
in your worksheet.

Beyond that I don't know what to tell you since I tested and verified that
my suggestion worked before I posted it.
