I'm trying to find the Data Analysis Tool Add-In for Excel 2007. Is this a
software you need to purchase?

I already have Datalysis, MegaStat, etc.

This one is to do Pareto charts.

Click the Data tab, look to far right for Analysis group. This is where Data
Analysis should be
Not there? Then:
1) Office button (colourful, round ball at far left)
2) At bottom of dialog: Excel Options
3) At left: add-ins
4) At bottom in Manage, select "Excel Add-ins"; click Go
5) Click in box "Analysis Toolpak" to add check mark to box
6) Return to worksheet and look again in Data / Analysis
best wishes

School Nut -

The Analysis ToolPak add-in is available with Excel. If it is installed in
Excel 2007, the Data Analysis item appears on the Data ribbon. If not, run
setup to install it from the Office/Excel disk.

However, the Pareto feature of the Analysis ToolPak's Histogram tool is not
very useful because the raw data for the input range must be numeric. Raw
data for a Pareto chart is often text descriptions of causes of defects, and
the Histogram tool will not count the occurrences of non-numeric data.

Instead, you can use the COUNTIF worksheet function to obtain frequencies
for text data. Then you can construct a Column chart (vertical bars).

Or, you can use an Excel template. Use Google to search for "excel pareto
chart" (without the quotes).
