i hope i can explain this better than i did before. after reading my old
post
i can see i was not clear at all. what i am trying to do is take this
group
of numbers below and make groups not exceeding 168.

You mean where the SUM of the numbers is less than 168? Because "groups not
exceeding 168" means "not exceeding 168 MEMBERS" to me....
