Version 7 makes some corrections to the comment notes attached to cells A4, A12 and A20. It also includes the previous version 6 correlation coefficient calculations and Quantile-Quantile plots to help decide whether the data are normally or lognormally distributed. An 'Update Worksheet' button runs a Visual Basic macro to automatically update any cells and charts in the worksheet that are affected by changes in the microbial count data. You must click on the 'Enable Macros' button in the dialog box that is displayed before the worksheet opens in Excel in order for the macro to be useable.
