Hi. Don't have an answer, but I would be curious for any feedback if you
deleted the following line for debugging ...
Call SolverOptions(MaxTime:=100...

' Add the constraint that Final Inventory = Capacity
SolverAdd CellRef:=Range("Final_Inventory").Offset(0, intOffset),
Relation:=1, ....

Note that if you really want "Equal", I believe that Relation should be 2,
and not 1.
Also, make sure your sheet is using A1 reference, and not R1C1 reference for
debugging.

I'm using this code to run Solver with VBA. When I run it, there is no
solution (or Solver Results dialog box). When I check the Solver under
"Tools" and see that the constraints and MaxMinVal are set OK. But
there are no entries for "Set Target Cell or "By Changing Cells". What
have I done wrong?

Code:
--------------------
Sub RunSolver()
'Prompt for month number
currMonth = Application.InputBox(Prompt:="Enter month number:", Type:=2)

'Clear previous Solver settings
SolverReset

' Solver Options...
Call SolverOptions(MaxTime:=100, Iterations:=200, Precision:=0.0001,
AssumeLinear _
:=True, StepThru:=False, Estimates:=1, Derivatives:=1, SearchOption:=1, _
IntTolerance:=5, Scaling:=False, Convergence:=0.0001, AssumeNonNeg:=True)


' The Solver will run one month at a time. Using the first month as
' the starting point, use intOffset to determine which month (column)
' to solve for

intOffset = currMonth - 1

' Set the target cell to a minimum value by changing cells C11:C22 or
' an offset of this range
SolverOk SetCell:=Range("Total_Cost"), MaxMinVal:=2, _
ByChange:=Range("Ship").Offset(0, intOffset)

' Add the constraint that Final Inventory = Capacity
SolverAdd CellRef:=Range("Final_Inventory").Offset(0, intOffset),
Relation:=1, _
FormulaText:=Range("Capacity").Offset(0, intOffset)

' Add the constraint that Final Inventory = Safety Stock
SolverAdd CellRef:=Range("Final_Inventory").Offset(0, intOffset),
Relation:=3, _
FormulaText:=Range("Safety_Stock").Offset(0, intOffset)

' Add the constraint that shipments to customer = customer demand.
SolverAdd CellRef:=Range("Net_Flow_Cust").Offset(0, intOffset),
Relation:=2, _
FormulaText:=Range("Demand_Cust").Offset(0, intOffset)

' Add the constraint that shipments from PM = PM Production.
SolverAdd CellRef:=Range("Net_Flow_PM").Offset(0, intOffset),
Relation:=2, _
FormulaText:=Range("Supply_PM").Offset(0, intOffset)

' Add the constraint that shipments from WHSE = WHSE Demand.
SolverAdd CellRef:=Range("Net_Flow_WHSE").Offset(0, intOffset),
Relation:=3, _
FormulaText:=Range("Demand_WHSE").Offset(0, intOffset)

' Solve the model and keep the final results.
SolverSolve UserFinish:=False
'SolverFinish KeepFinal:=1

End Sub
--------------------
