Following my earlier post on the me, me, me syndrome, here is my initial analysis of the data from the Office of National Statistics for you. I have converted the text on the page I sent you to into tabular format and from there have prepared two pie charts.
These additional resources will help you with your understanding. There is a further chart on the ONS page that I haven’t included here.
Go to http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=192 for the original data. What follows is my analysis
| Analysis of UK GDP: Quarters 2 and 3 for 2008 | Analysis of UK GDP: Quarter 3 for 2008 | Analysis of UK GDP: Quarter 2 for 2009 |
| Q3 | Q2 | |
| GDP Whole Economy | -0.5 | 0 |
| Construction | -0.8 | -0.5 |

Hey there,
I was wondering if you could help me out?
I followed your instructions perfectly
http://www.duncanwil.co.uk/simult.html
But when I do it for my real calculation, it gives me #Value at the first minverse command (yep I held down SHIFT and CTRL). And it was working fine in your example.
What I think I have wrong is the column A as that appears to be a different calc?
Jay, I hope you read this as I don't know your email address.
I have put together a spreadsheet ffor you that solves the additional question I set on my web page ... it contains the setup and the solutions so you can check what you have done.
Array entering is by CTRL + SHIFT and ENTER not just SHIFT and CTRL as you wrote ... just in case it wasn't a typo!!
If this doesn't solve your problem, write again and send me your file this time and I will see what I can do. Use the address on my site ...
