I am trying to use a convert function and always results in "#NAME?". So I
kept using Microsoft Excel Help to figure this out and Microsoft Excel Help
would show how to use the function. I followed its instruction and result was
the same. I then showed all the functions available for excel and the
"convert" function is not on the list. I also checked on previous version of
Excel and results are the same - no "convert" function in the program.
 
the #Name error indicates (in this instance) that the function is not
available. The following is copied from Excel Help re the convert function:

If this function is not available, run the Setup program to install the
Analysis ToolPak. After you install the Analysis ToolPak, you must enable it
by using Add-Ins on the Tools menu.
 
You have to have the analysis ToolPak installed for this function to work.
To do this:

<Tools>
<Add-Ins...>
Check Analysis ToolPak
