Extrapolate to zero (n) rather than forecast x units
It would be useful when adding trend lines to be able to set 'extrapolate to
a number' rather than 'forecast x units along'. This would allow you to click extrapolate to x=0 so that the trend line can be seen back to the axis. It also means that you don't have to calculate the difference between the last data point and the point you wish to extrapolate to.

Re: Extrapolate to zero (n) rather than forecast x units
Getting the y value for x=0 is a simple exercise. Set x=0 in the
regression equation. -- Regards, Tushar Mehta www.tushar-mehta.com Excel, PowerPoint, and VBA add-ins, tutorials Custom MS Office productivity solutions In article <F69D35E1-DF81-44CD-A969-C324D6CC6137@microsoft.com>, DaveSUK@discussions.microsoft.com says... > It would be useful when adding trend lines to be able to set 'extrapolate to > a number' rather than 'forecast x units along'.
