Wow!
I could have used this information about a year ago, when I tried to make
Excel do the work of a graphing program. I found that I could get it to fit
sets of data using the solver function, but I never got the error bars
working. As a result I switched to Origin for Windows for fitting and
plotting and it has been able to take everything we've thrown at it. The
program has a few quirks, but for our work, it was much better and faster than
SigmaPlot for DOS. I wonder if the windows version is any faster?
