Hi folks,
Without going into detail I have the following problem. I use a quite complex worksheet that calculates many X Y and Z values to a .csv document that is used by another department to do whatever with.
Recently it has been decided that the base line 0 for each value will be changed and I now have to rescale several thousand values from the old to the new.
Old X 0.0 will now be 4.00, old Y 0..0 will now be -1.00 and old Z will remain at 0. The old scale increased/decreased by 0.10. However the new scale will increase/decrease by 0.02
What I want is a formula that can take the old values and convert them to the new? I could create a lookup table but original values run into +/- four digit numbers?
Am I asking the impossible here?
