I am doing a maximize profit problem with excel. I would like one of my constraints to be only even numbers for the cells in the "by changing cells". How do I add this constraint?

Could you use data validation > Custom
=MOD(E1,2)=0

I am not sure what that is. Would you mind explaining how I would use this to add an even constraint to a group of cells such as A1-A10? I don't understand what to type and where to type it.

I highlighted the cells I wanted to solve for even responses, went to data validation, chose custom and typed in "=MOD(E7,2)=0" in the formula box. What does this formula mean? I am still getting odd numbers spit out by solver. I appreciate the help.
Change E7 to the first cell of your range
e.g your range is E1 to E7 then select the cells and then in data validation enter
=MOD(E1,2)=0

My data set starts with cell E7. I get what is going on with the data validation. Excel will now not let me type in an odd number, but solver still uses odd numbers in the results. Any thoughts?
sorry for the confusion
I don't have solver installed so can't help
maybe these links will help
