    Can't you use the LOGEST() function?

    David -

    Excel's logarithmic trendline fits y = c*LN(x) + b.

    Excel's exponential trendline fits y = c*EXP(b*x).

    Excel's LOGEST function fits y = b*m^x. The b value corresponds to c in the
    trendline exponential function, and the m corresponds to EXP(b).

    So, LOGEST is a worksheet equivalent to exponential trendline, not to
    logarithmic trendline.
