Could someone point me in the proper direction to be able to take advantage
of Excel's forecasting and trending capabilities. Any Excel Add-in links
would be nice as well. Thank you in advance for any help any of you can
provide

shown below:

'====================
To forecast in Excel, you have to specify the form of the model (sorry,
no artificial intellegence here). See Help for FORECAST (straight line
trend), TREND (linear in unknown coefficients, such as polynomials,
multiple linear regression, etc), and GROWTH (exponential growth).
