Hi All,

I have a situation where I upgraded a computer from Win98 to WinXP and now
Excel 2000 files using EDATE for amortization schedule generates #NAME?
error. For example: =EDATE(B14,1) generates #NAME? error where cell B14 has
any date in it. This used to work before, but now doesn't work on other
computers with Windows XP Pro and Excel 2000 either. Any ideas on how to
solve this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

EDATE is in AnalysisPac. You need to install it (when installing Excel) and
load it with Tools | Addins
best wishes

You need to have the Analysis ToolPak installed. Go to
Tools Add-Ins. Once installed, press F9.
