solver
 

i recorded a macro while using the solver function, which worked, but when i
tried to re-use the code that it had recorded, it said "sub or function not
defined" and highlighted "SolverOk"

sub test()
SolverOk SetCell:="$G$1", MaxMinVal:=3, ValueOf:=".0124", ByChange:="$G$2"
SolverSolve
end sub

any thoughts? thanks, mike allen

Hi Mike,

You need to set a reference to the Solver add-in for this to work.
First, make sure Solver is actually open by choosing Tools/Solver from the
Excel menu and then just closing the Solver dialog (the Solver add-in won't
necessarily be open when you first start Excel because it's a demand-loaded
add-in).

Next activate the workbook with your code in it and choose Alt+F11 to
open the Visual Basic Editor. From the VBE menu choose Tools/References. Put
a check mark beside the reference called SOLVER. Save your workbook. The
code should run now.
