Hello

I am not able to get how to use the code posted in the challenge, where to put all the amounts for which I want Total for a particular amount? and where to put my target amount

Can anyone please help?



VBA Code:
Dim INV() As Long
Dim CHECK As Long
Dim MAX_CHECK_INVS_No As Integer
Dim Sol As Long
Dim RESUME_No() As Integer
Dim RES_No As Integer
Dim RESUME_CALC As Integer
Dim MAX_RESUME_No As Integer
Dim AA As Long
Dim MAX_INVS As Integer
Dim MAX_DEPTH As Integer

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
The challenge was a long time ago.
I believe that there are a few posts on the subject. You can try searching.

I know that one solution had code and instructions on how to use it and it worked.

try looking at the following I don't know if it uses the same approach as the code you cite.

Thanks Dave for the reply, I used this as well and this works fine up to 50 amounts, but this code does not work if amounts are more than 100 and most of the times excel gets freeze when I run the code.
