Michael:
I tried to enter this in an exploration.
Method 1: all the functions in ColA and test in Filter
result error function for d1 (not recognized function)
I tried rearranging the functions with d1 as the first, y1 as the second and
m1 as the 3rd.
this gave me an error function message again.
Method 2. entered each formula in a separate column. This gave me an error
message in the test formula at y1.
Any suggestions?
