Help a Newbie with Worksheet.Application Functions in VBA? 1

[DRWeig]

Hi Group,

I have a monster VBA program written, and for the first time ever I want to use a worksheet function (LinEst). I've searched the world, but I can't find the answer to "Run Time Error 424 - Object Required" that I get.

A simple example is attached. Can anyone take the time to point me in the right direction?

Best to you,

Goober Dave

The problem with your macro is that not all of the information needed for the LINEST function is provided. The LINEST function needs a range of Known Y's, Known X's, Const and Stats (the last 2 can be omitted if using the defaults). Your macro is referring to 3 ranges to begin with B - D, when LINEST is only 2 dimensional.

In order to use the LINEST function you'd need to have something like the following (at a minimum)
answer = Appplication.WorksheetFunction.LinEst("B2:B21","C2:C21")
