Download and do analysis with Ms excel

What's the difference between the "Analysis ToolPak"

and "Analysis ToolPak - VBA"?

The "Analysis ToolPak" makes the expanded set of functions available within your Microsoft Excel
worksheets.

The "Analysis ToolPak - VBA" makes the functions available to your code modules in Visual Basic for
Applications, which also ships with Microsoft Excel. These VBA tools are for more advanced users
and software programmers.

The Microsoft Excel Analysis ToolPak is included with Microsoft Excel. As of the date this page was
created, I am not aware of a way to download the Analysis ToolPak from Microsoft's website or
elsewhere.

By default, even though the ToolPak comes on your Excel install disks, it may not be activated
automatically when you install Excel. In order to make the ToolPak active, you must go through the
procedures described in "How to Install the Analysis ToolPak."

Installing the Microsoft Excel Analysis ToolPak is quite easy.

First, open Microsoft Excel.

Next, select "Add-Ins" from the "Tools" menu, as shown below:

This will open a window showing all available Excel add-ins, illustrated below:

The Analysis ToolPak includes many functions for advanced use of Microsoft Excel.

These functions include:

• Anova
o Single Factor
o Two-Factor with Replication
o Two-Factor without Replication
• Correlation
• Covariance
• Descriptive statistics
• Exponential smoothing
• F-Test Two-Sample for Variances
• Fourier Analysis
• Histogram
• Moving Average
• Random Number Generation
• Rank and Percentile
• Regression
• Sampling
• t-Test
• z-Test
