Hi Frank,

First I think I need to let you know my skill level. I am able to do all of
the basic and intetmediate functions. I also ko how to collect data for pivot
tables and create them. I have never created a forecast although I have used
them to create other reports.

I am currently unemployed and I have a possible interview that includes
creating a five year forecast.

I am a "saver" and keep a lot of reports that may be useful to me, Thus I
have at my disposal a workbook with extensive sales data that I can use to
practice. I could really use your help in starting from scratch. I have
Execl 2000 on my personal computer, however I do not know the version I will
use during my interview.


Thank you for responding to my question. By the way, what time is it in
Franfurt? It's about 2 PM for me. I live in the U S, in Michigan--the state
that's shaped like a mitten. :)

on your existing data the following data
