Question

I am wondering how to use sample covariance in my VBA code.

I can use Application.WorksheetFunction.Covar(array_1,array_2) to get the population covariance, but how about the sample covariance? I realize that there are COVARIANCE.S and COVARIANCE.P Functions in the formula bar. How can I use them in my VBA code?

Thanks

In xl2010 you can certainly use
Application.WorksheetFunction.Covariance_P

Evaluate or the shorthand [] is your friend for calculating functions

Sub Test()
MsgBox Application.WorksheetFunction.Covariance_P([a1:a3], [b1:b3])
MsgBox [Covariance.P(a1:a3, b1:b3)]
End Sub
