Things to remember:
Click on the NORM button to calculate your analysis. Tell the program how many
analyses you want to calculate (1 column for each analysis).
Don't erase column A or you won't know where to put your data and you won't know
what your results are!
Don't add rows before ROW 59! The Visual Basic Macro is looking in specific rows for
specific information. If you move things around, the program will not work.
Currently, Rows 16 and 43 list the sum of the chemical analysis and norm respectively.
These are calculated by the Spreadsheet and not by Visual Basic. Therefore, you can
Fill Right on those rows to calculate the sums for each column. This may assess whether
you have input your analysis correctly.
The program does not normalize to 100%. If you start with less than 100%, your norm
will also have <100% (It may anyway).
Save your results by moving the data from the INPUT Sheet to another sheet.
Most of the analyses on the "Major Rock Types" Sheet are from Le'Maitre (1976) J.
Petrol 17: 589. The associated norms are calculated by THIS spreadsheet and not those
reported by Le Maitre. In some cases, the values may differ, especially on ultramafic
rocks, as it appears that Le Maitre used some other norm calculation routine.
Not all norm calculations are the same, and some reported norms may differ from those
calculated herein.
