I keep reading about an Excel Illustrative worksheet that shows how to do alot of the necessary calculations in Excel but have been unable to locate it.  The one link that a user posted no longer works.  Can somebody please lead me to this worksheet?  Thanks.

There is an excel file under the interest rates posting in the vee time series student project location.  This file gives you interest rates, formulas to calculate real interest rates from the nominal ones, formulas to calculate the sample autocorrelations, a macro to calc the sample autocorrelations, and correlograms.  This is what I'm using to get me started. 

I searched for a while before I came across this as well.  Nothing seems to be organized well on any of the discussion forums here.  NEAS should really look to clean up the postings into more clearly labeled groupings.
