Hi,

I'm working on an estimating model where the user selects an amount (ie hours) and a curve profile (ie Linear= 20% 20% 20% 20% 20%, Bell= 10% 20% 40% 20% 10%, etc.)

The curve defines how to spread the hours over a duration that could be 1 month, 3 months, 7 months etc. I can get close using a PERCENTILE function, but any ideas for a better solution would be welcome.

Thanks

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
Do you have a sample spreadsheet you can email? If so, send it to me.

If not, I might benefit from more information on what you're trying to do.
