I didn't see an Inverse Tan command so is there another way to do this. Ie Tan(50) = 1.1917. Normally Tan-1(1.917) would give 50. But unfortunately there's no command to do this (or is there?), so does anyone know a work-around? Thanks.

yes there is. I believe it's atan(value) or atanfull(x_value, y_value)

the atan stands for arct tan. which is same as tan^(-1)
