Hi All,

Shop1 10 12 14 16 20 29
Shop2 55 57 60 45 50 44
Shop3 17 20 40 30 40 55
Etc


This pivot tables show qty of products sold. I need to find out if people
are not buyinh as many products as they used to. Please can anyone advise
on how best to do this i tried the trend fuction but i have no idea how it
works or even if this is the best solution to my problem.

First just add the columns:

Shop1 10 12 14 16 20 29
Shop2 55 57 60 45 50 44
Shop3 17 20 40 30 40 55
total 82 89 114 91 110 128

Clearly you have an upward trend.
