    Angry Have a cell = a specific number and change the corrispondence to adjust to the number?

    Can you have a cell change 1 of the number to adjust to the equaled sum? EXAMPLE

    Say I have N3 value:130.00 my 130 is coming from 2 sells I3/M3 I3 value:1182.60 M3 value:9.0

    My I3 is value from =H3*C3 H3 value being: .1825 and my C3 value being 6480

    I want if I enter 120.00 in N3 to change my H3 and nothing else....sorry I am trying to make it simple lol.

    You can do a Goal Seek under What if Analysis under Data. Set Cell N3 to value 120 by changing cell H3

    It would really help if you uploaded a sample spreadsheet showing the expected outcome...

    I am not sure if you can do goal seek on a range without using some vba code.

    @ michaelDDW

    To attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    I think people forget the word "THANK YOU!!!!" Do you still know it???

    There is a little star ( ADD REPUTATION ) below those person who helped you. Click it to say your "PRIVATE APPRECIATION TO THEIR EFFORT ON THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS "
