IPad Excel Data Analysis Function

Hello there,
I am stuck with a question no one seems able to answer- I've tried all three of our local Apple stores and they haven't been able to tell me. I also don't know any iPad users that have been able to give me an answer either.
I have been using a 5S and am very familiar with the functionality of Numbers and Pages. However, I'm a finance student and the fact of the matter is that I have to have access to Excel. I've invested YEARS and thousands of dollars into the iOS ecosystem and I'm very torn over what to do next. I'm hoping to migrate permanently from a laptop to a tablet for my productivity, which involves extremely heavy duty (5+ hours daily) word processing and spreadsheet creation. Pages handles the job just fine, but Numbers isn't really cutting it; Excel is simply the de facto standard in my line of work. I was pleased as punch when Microsoft finally launched Office for iOS. If the simple functions were all I needed, my choice would be open and shut. However, it's not. I must have access to the Solver and Data Analysis toolpaks. This is where it gets tricky. I have been told by Mac users running Excel that data analysis is not natively supported as it is on a Windows machine. Fine. However, no one I know is using full Office through iOS and no one at the Apple Store has been able to answer me definitively on this, either. Does anyone out there know first hand if the Data Analysis and Solver toolpaks are available on iOS version of Office? I would like to avoid fussing around with another tablet (quality, etc) and the fact that iOS is the only mobile operating suite where I can seemlessly blend Google, Apple and Microsoft, I am really, really, really hesitant to leave it. I am not willing to shell out the money for Office on iOS and run it on my phone (though I love that idea) just to find that it won't do data analysis (I'm all for experiments but that's a bit pricey for a student). Thanx for your time.
TL:DR, does the new Microsoft Office for iOS provide Solver and Data Analysis toolpaks in Excel?

I know what the toolpaks are (in the Mac version of Excel they're referred to as "add ins"), and again, I can find no evidence that Microsoft supports toolpaks/add-ins in Excel for iPad.
If you wish to confirm this with other users, I'd suggest you ask in the Excel for iPad forum:

  • Does Numbers have a Data Analysis function similar to "Goal Seek" in Excel?

    Does Apple's Numbers application have a Data Analysis function similar to the "Goal Seek" function in Excel?

    No, Numbers doesn't have Goal Seek or anything like it.
    You can set up Slider controls to facilitate playing with key variables in your expressions, but Numbers doesn't have any capability to make the adjustments itself.

  • MS Excel Data Analysis toolpak question

    Attempted to add data analysis toolpak to MS Excel using MS Office 2004 for Mac.
    However, when I attempt to load/add the program, a folder is added containing Data Analysis is listed but "Data Analysis" does not show up in my MS Excel "Tools" tab.
    Probably an easy fix. Any assistance is appreciated - thanks.

    Yes I have the 2004 MS Office for Mac installed. However, I cannot confirm that the add in has been loaded when using Excel.
    The procedure that I am using:
    1. With MS Excel open, I go into the "Tools" tab and select "Add-ins"
    2. The "Add-ins" sub-box opens and I check the desired utilities, in this case Analysis Toolbox and I hit the "Select" button.
    3. Next another sub-box opens entitled, "Choose an Add-in". With the MS Office CD in I scroll oven until I locate the sub-folder "Analysis Tools" which opens up four additional options: Analysis ToolPak, Analysis ToolPak - VBA, FuncRes, and ProcDBRes. I select Analysis ToolPak and then "Open".
    4. I receive a pop up message, "Copy Analysis ToolPak to the Add-ins folder?" I select "yes" .
    5. Thinking that the process has been completed, I go back to the MS Excel worksheet, select "Tools" tab and Data Analysis is not there.

  • The same Excel DATE.VALUE function in SQL

    Hi, I need to convert a date in a number that Excel can recognize.
    I'm trying to do a
    SELECT
    (trunc(SYSDATE) - TO_DATE('1900-01-01', 'yyyy-mm-dd'))
    FROM dual
    And I retrieve this: 41014
    But today in excel is 41016!!
    Why? There is a better solution than this?
    Thank you, R.

    See this topic for an answer: Import Excel Date Field
    Basically you need to do this:
    SELECT (TRUNC(SYSDATE) - TO_DATE('01-JAN-1900', 'DD-MON-YYYY')) + 2
    FROM   dual

  • Data analysis using EXCEL

    Oracle Community
    I belong to the Oracle Bandwagon since the last 12 years. Always carried out data analysis by using Oracle SQL using tools like PL/SQL developer, SQL PLUS etc, but since the time I have started using EXCEL and drawing data using ODBC, I'm amazed at the power of EXCEL.
    Does Oracle have any tools similar to EXCEL ?
    Thanks

    NagErm.... yes... I have EXCEL too. Amazing that isn't it. :)
    However, for pure data crunching you can't beat good old SQL. Full of powerful analytical functionality and the more recent MODEL clause, both of which allow you to reference 'other' rows of data for 'cross cell' calculation. Fast and powerful without the need to involve the limits of ODBC, Windows o/s, or exporting of data to a 3rd party tool and writing something in a completely different language.
    May I ask though? What is the point of your question?

    Are you using Outlook as your email client?
    The problem is with Outlook and on the sending side of things. Have the sender change their Outlook text settings from RTF (rich text) to plain text and the attachment should arrive uncorrupted.

    I would like to get data analysis for solving statistic and making graphs, but this function is not in add-in. How should I do? I also set up microsoft office for mac 2011.

    Microsoft didn't include that with the 2011 version.
    There is a third-party application that substitutes for the add-in: http://www.analystsoft.com/en/products/statplusmac/
    They also have a limited, free version.

    thank you so much ....i'm desperate!!!

    Pat,
    No there is not.  If you know the problem you can, however, use sliders to "sweep" values and perform the operation yourself.  You can format a cell as a slider by selecting the cell(s) then using the cell formatter:

    I am looking into getting Numbers, but need it for statistic analysis, referred to data analysis in excel. Does anyone know if Numbers can us data analysis for regressions and descriptive statistics?

    Compared to Excel, Numbers is weak in statistics functions. If you are creative, you can get by with Numbers, but you will probably not be happy with Numbers as a statistics tool.

  • Refresh Excel Data in OfficeControl

    Hey,
    I have seen a few posts about loading SAP data from an internal table and downloading to Excel.  But is there a way to refresh the Excel data without downloading? 
    Scenario:  User uploads Excel sheet into WD4A app.  A button is pushed on the Web Dynpro application and the data is refreshed in the Excel sheet.
    Thanks,
    Kenneth

    The OLE2 functions in ABAP (which would allow this tight integration) seem to use the GUI to serve the OLE2 requests -
    [ABAP/4 OLE Automation Controller|http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/print46c/en/data/pdf/bcfesde6/bcfesde6.pdf]
    so I don't think you could use these.
    However, the OfficeControl UI element should allow you some sort of control.  Check the doco there - looks like you could do some pretty interesting things if you had a macro in your spreadsheet to allow you to do them!
    Although from your question you seem more to want to be able to parse an Excel spreadsheet  from a download and then regenerate it with some fields changed - probably more a question to throw open to the ABAP forum
