The Menu

When Resolution is successfully installed and started, an Excel workbook will be opened and the 'Resolution' menu item will be added to the standard Excel menu bar.

Displays the "Show Me" dialog, which provides shortcuts to a wide range of Resolution's functionality.

Displays fully functional templates for a wide range of instrument types. When a template is selected, a new Excel workbook will be opened and given a name based on the template name. The workbook can then be saved as an ordinary Excel workbook.

Displays the Function Database, which categorizes all Resolution's functions. The Function Database is a convenient way to select the most appropriate function for valuing a specific instrument.

The Function Database allows the user to paste not only functions, but also fully functional examples.

Displays Resolution's Sensitivity Analysis tool.

Sensitivity analysis is the process of observing how an output varies over a range of inputs. Entering these inputs manually can be a tedious and error-prone activity. The Sensitivity Analysis Tool greatly simplifies this task. Simply enter the desired range of values, indicate the input and output cells and hit a button. The Sensitivity Analysis Tool will iterate over the given values and produce a data set containing the output for each value. It will then create a graph so you can see at a glance how varying the input values affects the value of the output.

Using your default email program, creates an email message addressed to the Resolution Financial Software support address.
