How can Excel solve this?
I have a bunch of numbers, lets say A, B, C, D. Each number is made up of a
combination of other numbers, lets say 1, 2, 5 make up A, 3, 7, 8, 9 make up B and so on. Is there any way I can get an output saying A is made up 1, 2 and 5 in Excel? I think it could be done using Solver, no? |

Do you mean to say that you have a list of numbers, and need to know
which numbers from the list add up to a specific number? If yes, this is a link to a post that contains a link to a solution. (I tried to give you just the link to the solution, but Google groups truncated the link.) http://groups.google.com/group/micro...4bff2b1f11e58e |

So I assume you have one column with A, B, C and the other with 125, 379 etc.
What you do is have the list of colums with the letters in A and the numbers in B. Then copy column A to C and do a Vlookup on column B and C.

Mr. Engineer,
The number A in Column 1 can be sum of numbers 1, 2, 5 or 2, 4, 6 in Column 2. I have to figure out what numbers in Column 2 make up number A, number B, etc in Column 2. The numbers in Column 2 making up the numbers in Column 1 are unique, so if 1, 2, 5 make up A, none of those three can be part of a sum making up B. Follow?
