Hi Regina,

I would like to use nonlinear interpolated values for further calculations. So
far, I can only see them in an OpenOffice Calc chart, but I cannot make any use
of them in a spreadsheet. Maybe I miss something, but the only way I see how
this can be done, is with a new function. I am aware of the fact that OpenOffice
Calc as well as MS Excel include a function called TREND. But this kind of
linear interpolation is not suited for many problems. Since OpenOffice Calc
already includes a cubic spline algorithm for nonlinear interpolation, why not
providing it to the users? Almost everything is already implemented. If it is
done correctly, it is possible to get as many nonlinear interpolated values as
desired with a single function call! That is the beauty of it. 

Mark
