I believe one of Roy's "tricks" to get around not being able to pass
variables to various MS functions is to wrap the variable part in the
LastValue() function.
e.g.
{ 'vp' cannot normally be used with 'Ref' }
parm:=Input("Parm",1,200,20);
vp:= Mov(C,parm,E);
pl:=Ref(C,-LastValue(vp)); { don't forget the '-' sign }
pl;

In a sense, yes. Something like the Reference function. However, I
can't pass in a variable for the periods, and that is my problem. I
need something that can take a variable.
