Norman, I use Teten's formula in my excel spreadsheets to derive dewpoint from
T/RH

You'll have to a little bit of schoolboy maths to transpose the equation to get
RH from T/Td !

Does anyone have a formula for calculating relative humidity using
temperature and dew-point as input data? I have a large number of these
calculations to do and using Excel is a much more attractive proposition
than using look-up tables.
