Required Inputs

You need two or more columns of data.

Running the Macro

Suppose the data are in C1, C2, ... C10 and you want the cross correlations for all the pairs of columns. To run the macro, choose View > Command Line/History and type:

%CCFLOOP C1-C10

Click Run.

Note

The dash in C1-C10 is a shortcut you could use if the variables are in consecutive columns. If the columns are not consecutive, list each variable with a space in between each (for example, %ccfloop C1 C4 C7 C9).
