Alright boys, here’s the instructions:
The cells that are locked are locked for your own protection. You don’t need to edit them, they are for displaying data. The fields for you to edit are those that have blue text. Such things include:
For each aircraft definition along the right side:
N-number and aircraft name
Empty weight, moment, arm
Usable fuel
Va & weight
Vgl & weight
Moment arms for seat, fuel, and baggage locations
Envelope definition (the columns of arms and weights down the middle for each aircraft. Defines the points of the envelope to be drawn.)
For a particular flight, click on the radio button at the top to select aircraft, then enter in the green table on the left your data for that flight:
Pilot & copilot weight
PAX weight
Baggage weight
Fuel & Taxi allowance
Your estimated Fuel to be used for the flight (computes landing weight)
After you’ve updated the aircraft info and/or the information for the envelope, you may need to click on another aircraft, then back to the first aircraft, to get the macros to update the graph. Also, make sure your security settings on Excel aren’t preventing macros from running.
I hope that works better! Sorry to have thown it out without much guidance before, but I had just gotten it, too.

Steve, attached is the W&B spreadsheet that I made.... I can explain how to use the sheet but basically the user would fill in blue text values. The current sheet supports up to 6 aircraft.... after entering the data select the radio button at the top to display and enter W&B information for that aircraft.
I hope you find it helpful.
