4.4. "Distributions to Fit" Dialog Doesn't Allow Every Distribution

Applies to: @RISK 5,x–7.x

Why won't @RISK allow me to specify that I want to fit a discrete distribution (e.g. a Binomial, Geometric, HyperGeo, IntUniform, NegBin, Poisson) in the "Distributions to Fit" dialog?

@RISK lets you choose distributions that are appropriate for the type of data you specify.  On the "Data" tab, change the data type to a discrete type, and then the discrete distributions will be available to you on the "Distributions to Fit" tab.
