FV, BTW, is how I solved my immediate problem. I wanted to find out what the effective interest rate is on principle that accrues to a certain sum over a certain period of time. I still haven't found a direct formula for that, but working backwards with FV got me my immediate answer.
With someone's help offlist, I was able to solve my problem in a straightforward manner with the as yet undocumented function, RATE. Version 2 has a bunch of new functions - evidently it incorporates the Analysis Addin - and I guess the Help file hasn't caught up with them yet. I understand that a bunch of people over at www.oooauthors.org are working on this project, and they have my appreciation.
Thanks to all.
