    Using LINEST function on Dynamic Series

    Hi

    I have developed a dynamic chart so that the data is plotted correctly even if there is data missing in the selected series. I want to use the same data and LINEST function to calculate the Slope of the line with zero intercept. I have used the SLOPE and INTERCEPT functions on the same data and I get correct but when I use the LINEST function it gives me error #VALUE.

    Could someone help me to calculate the Slope of the line with zero intercept. Please see the attached spreadsheet.

    Re: Using LINEST function on Dynamic Series

    =LINEST(C3:INDEX(C3:C15,A3),B3:INDEX(B3:B15,A3),FALSE,FALSE)

    where A3 contains the shortest length of data.

    A3: =MIN(COUNT(B3:B15),COUNT(C3:C15))
