How about:
=YourNumber^(1/12) or =POWER(YourNumber,1/12) tj "Mark" wrote: Hello, I am currently undertaking some statistical analysis in excel but have encountered a data problem, my data is annual, and i need it monthly, hence need to take the 12th root of the numbers, but this doesnt seem available in excel, can you please advise kind regards |

Mark,
The root of a number in XL is the reciprocal of the root that you want ie =YourNumber^(1/12) Please do not multi-post to different newsgroups it is not encouraged for various reasons Regards Sandy -- to e-mail direct replace @mailinator.com with @tiscali.co.uk "Mark" wrote in message ...
