	SumXMY2	Returns the sum of squares of differences of corresponding values in two arrays.
	Syd	Returns the sum-of-years' digits depreciation of an asset for a specified period.
	Tanh	Returns the hyperbolic tangent of a number.
	TBillEq	Returns the bond-equivalent yield for a Treasury bill.
	TBillPrice	Returns the price per $100 face value for a Treasury bill.
	TBillYield	Returns the yield for a Treasury bill.
	TDist	Returns the Percentage Points (probability) for the Student t-distribution where a numeric value (x) is a calculated value of t for which the Percentage Points are to be computed. The t-distribution is used in the hypothesis testing of small sample data sets. Use this function in place of a table of critical values for the t-distribution.
	Text	Converts a value to text in a specific number format.
	TInv	Returns the t-value of the Student's t-distribution as a function of the probability and the degrees of freedom.
	Transpose	Returns a vertical range of cells as a horizontal range, or vice versa. TRANSPOSE must be entered as an array formula in a range that has the same number of rows and columns, respectively, as an array has columns and rows. Use TRANSPOSE to shift the vertical and horizontal orientation of an array on a worksheet.
	Trend	Returns values along a linear trend. Fits a straight line (using the method of least squares) to the arrays known_y's and known_x's. Returns the y-values along that line for the array of new_x's that you specify.
	Trim	Removes all spaces from text except for single spaces between words. Use TRIM on text that you have received from another application that may have irregular spacing.
	TrimMean	Returns the mean of the interior of a data set. TRIMMEAN calculates the mean taken by excluding a percentage of data points from the top and bottom tails of a data set. You can use this function when you wish to exclude outlying data from your analysis.
	TTest	Returns the probability associated with a Student's t-Test. Use TTEST to determine whether two samples are likely to have come from the same two underlying populations that have the same mean.
	USDollar	Converts a number to text format and applies a currency symbol. The name of the method (and the symbol that it applies) depends upon the language settings.
	Var	Estimates variance based on a sample.
	VarP	Calculates variance based on the entire population.
	Vdb	Returns the depreciation of an asset for any period you specify, including partial periods, using the double-declining balance method or some other method you specify. VDB stands for variable declining balance.
	VLookup	Searches for a value in the first column of a table array and returns a value in the same row from another column in the table array.
	Weekday	Returns the day of the week corresponding to a date. The day is given as an integer, ranging from 1 (Sunday) to 7 (Saturday), by default.
	WeekNum	Returns a number that indicates where the week falls numerically within a year.
	Weibull	Returns the Weibull distribution. Use this distribution in reliability analysis, such as calculating a device's mean time to failure.
	WorkDay	Returns a number that represents a date that is the indicated number of working days before or after a date (the starting date). Working days exclude weekends and any dates identified as holidays. Use WORKDAY to exclude weekends or holidays when you calculate invoice due dates, expected delivery times, or the number of days of work performed.
	Xirr	Returns the internal rate of return for a schedule of cash flows that is not necessarily periodic. To calculate the internal rate of return for a series of periodic cash flows, use the IRR function.
	Xnpv	Returns the net present value for a schedule of cash flows that is not necessarily periodic. Read/write Double.
	YearFrac	Calculates the fraction of the year represented by the number of whole days between two dates (the start_date and the end_date). Use the YEARFRAC worksheet function to identify the proportion of a whole year's benefits or obligations to assign to a specific term.
	YieldDisc	Returns the annual yield for a discounted security.
	YieldMat	Returns the annual yield of a security that pays interest at maturity.
	ZTest	Returns the one-tailed probability-value of a z-test. For a given hypothesized population mean, ZTEST returns the probability that the sample mean would be greater than the average of observations in the data set (array) — that is, the observed sample mean.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Application	When used without an object qualifier, this property returns an Application object that represents the Microsoft Excel application. When used with an object qualifier, this property returns an Application object that represents the creator of the specified object. You can use this property with an OLE Automation object to return the application of that object. Read-only.
	Creator	Returns a 32-bit integer that indicates the application in which this object was created. Read-only Long.
	Parent	Returns the parent object for the specified object. Read-only.
