equation to create 3d curve
anyone have a macro that can create a 3d curve given an equation (or more than one equation)?
i am in the middle of making one now but with my schedule and api ability (or lack of api ability  ) means it'll probably take me another two months...at least!
thanks!
  
lucky for you, i wrote that exact macro last week.

mahir,
i apparently don't have the proper libraries for this (my office install is a little messy). what object library do i need for "dim xlapp as excel.application"?

charles,
in my reference list it specifies "microsoft excel 11.0 object library". i have office 2003 installed. if you have an older/newer version the "11.0" might be different, but it should still work. i only use basic excel functions that haven't changed in as long as i can remember. if you still have issues getting the macro to run you could try repairing or uninstall/reinstalling excel. good luck.

i thought about using a free alternative to the excel engine, but i never got around to it. it would also be a separate step for users to install the additional library.

it doesn't seem to like something with excel 9.0... it can't find excel.application.
don't worry about it though, i'm not sure i have a use for the macro, i just thought it was interesting.

maybe the object names changed since 9.0. you can try checking the autocomplete listing or vb object browser when you declare a new variable. instead of excel.application it might be xl.app or some other variant.

thank for suggestion. i actually didn't set the reference properly, it works just fine without any mods with excel 2001.
