As you have discovered Solver needs the worksheet to be unprotected.

If you must run Solver using cells from this particular worksheet
unprotect it first.

Or, use Solver on another worksheet that is always unprotected.

Tushar,

I am not responding to your question, but I have question which I think you
can help.

I am unable to run macros which include solver function! You seem to have
done just that. Please help.

Hoping that you can help me with my problem.

I am unable to run solver with a macro.

Solver runs fine when I run it manually without using macro.

Any suggestions?

Error message I get is "Sub or Function not defined".
