    Cell range total cannot exceed another cell...

    New member, novice user, thanks in advance for any help...

    I have a cell range w10=SUM(AB10:AE13) that I never want to exceed anther cells total a1.

    So if a1 = 200, I would like the summed range of w10 to never to exceed 200.

    regards,

    BK

    Welcome to the forum

    In W10 place this formula:

    =MIN(A1,SUM(AB10:AE13))
