This post where you are commenting is somewhat an off-topic focused on project management and cost estimation. However, if you look at a previous post at http://8020world.com/jcmendez/2007/04/business/mo... you will see I use the s-curve for new technology adoption modeling, exactly as you ask. That post identifies the parameters, and the response to comment http://8020world.com/jcmendez/2007/04/business/mo... deals with the issue of parameter fitting (deriving the curve parameters from "real world" data). Hope it helps you, and drop me a line if it doesn't

In this sense I think it would be worth to identifiy each of the four parameters involved here with a given effect (i.e., Saturation has to do with a sort of Amplitude or max output of the process, etc).

In other words, once you modelize you try to link parameters with some "real world" behaviours. Any comment on that?
Thank you for sharing your experience,

I have a lot of data normalising to do and I do it manually using the PivotTable PivotChart wizard. This involves seven or eight mouse clicks and range selection using the arrow keys. I would really like to automate the process.

I am not at all experienced in VBA but I have tried to build a macro by modelling it on the macro recorder and trying to modify the hard coding but I have run into problems so I was very interested to see your code doing it in a completely different way. However I can't get it to work. Can you help please?

The data I was trying to get your code to work on is a sheet called "MultipleConsolidationMacroDevel". The data is in the range A1:P194. It has months across the top, products down the side with sales in the row/column intersections.

When I select/highlight the data area and start your macro running nothing seems to happen at all.
I am probably being very stupid but your macro looks really useful – how can I get it to work?

Thank you in advance

With kind regards

Thanks for any feedback.

Thanks again for your write-up and responses.

But during the Patchstick script it errors “error updating restore partition”. And the next line “mounting /dev/sda3 on /OSBoot failed: Invalid argument

When you say mounting failed, I’m assuming you refer to line 024 of the modified script, not to line 013 of the original script… right?

If line 024 is what failed, it is OK. As I mentioned in the post, the script was made for upgrading from 2.x firmware, so this error happens when you upgrade from 1.x

Any ideas on how to resolve? Alternatively, the case is open now, should I connect to a Mac and just restore the dmg you linked to into the “restore” partition?

Thanks!
