I have activated the 'Analysis Toolpak' add -in, but many financial functions
are still not available - such as nominal and effective formula conversions.

The EFFECT() and NOMINAL() functions should be available. Did you put a checkmark near Analysis Toolpak in the ToolsAdd-ins
dialog?

If I 'insert function' and select 'financial' from the drop-down menu, the
'nominal' and 'effect' formulas are not amongst the options. Also, if I open
a spreadsheet with a 'nominal' or 'effect' formula, it does not display the
result, but gives a #name error in the cell.

If you get the #NAME error Excel doesn't recognize the function. Therefore,
the Analysis Toolpak hasn't been installed, even if you think you went
through the process. Do you have the original installation CDs? Try
installing from there or else contact your IT department.

Thanks. Can you confirm exactly how I install from original cd's?

Given that we are using Office XP SBE, we do not have an IT department, so I
am trying to resolve myself.

I've only encountered the problem once myself, and it seemed to solve itself
without me having to do anything too drastic. I guess that if a solution is
found it may be mentioned in this group. I don't know whether the problem
still occurs in later versions of Excel such as 2007.

It doesn't since the ATP functions were brought into the application in
XL07.
