The technique for calculating section properties from coordinates is conveniently coded into a UDF:
Function Area(xy_range As Variant) As Double
Dim XYcells As Variant
Dim N As Long, NumX As Long
Dim XD As Double, YSum As Double
XYcells = GetArray(xy_range)
NumX = UBound(XYcells, 1) - LBound(XYcells, 1) + 1
If NumX < 3 Then
 XYcells = Transpose1(XYcells)
NumX = UBound(XYcells, 1) - LBound(XYcells, [...]
