Hello again folks - as promised in my last thread here, I've been working on turning yearbook statistics into Excel spreadsheets.
Coincidentally, today is my 25th birthday (spare a thought for a fader).
I've now updated the spreadsheet with Yearbook data all the way back to 1988 (the year I was born), therefore it now contains 25 years of statistics.
There were a lot of countries changing around and for some it was possible to create a continuation of data. Some are a simple change of name like South-West Africa to Namibia. Others, for example - in 1993 with Czechoslovakia splitting into two countries (Czech Republic and Slovakia) I have added an extra row that provides a continuation of the data, combining Czech Republic and Slovakia back together as if they were still one country. For other instances, this was not possible, especially around the U.S.S.R. and Yugoslavia - things got very complicated trying to "reconstruct" these, so I was not able to provide the same continuation of data. (If anyone else wants to have a go, feel free)
As before, there are two files for download, the second being the more useful one to most of you.

As before, the second .xls file has each statistic field in a separate tab with each year in a column, and is far more useful for year-by-year graphs etc. This time, I've also added a few additional sheets on the end, giving examples of the sorts of calculations that are possible with the data (e.g. Bible Studies per Publisher).
