Default Goal Seek

Hi Mike,

In general, you should be able to get your formula to work "the other way
around".
Second option is to record a macro while you goal seek the first line and
then change that to do the same for each line.
If you can write your formula in VBA, I could post a Function which iterates
that formula so you can enter a "goal seek" on each row.

But first of all, what are your formulas and how do they relate to each
other (IOW how did you Goal seek?)

Is there a way to "copy" Goal Seek acroos multiple rows?

Hourly Current New New
Rate Comp Rate Compensation
16.00 727.27 15.55675 727.27
16.00 727.27 15.55 727.00
17.00 772.73 105.00
15.26 693.75 105.00
16.00 727.27 105.00
16.50 750.00 105.00

The cells under the column labled New Compensation has a different formula
than the cells under the column labled Current Comp. I want to calculate a
new rate so that the New Compensation would be equal to the Current Comp
by
changing the cells under the column labled New Rate.

I have used Goal Seek in the first row. However this spreadsheet is
several
hundred lines long and useing Goal Seek is not practical. Is there a way
to
copy the goal seek funtion across multiple rows or is these a formula
which
could be written?

Thanks.
