    Arrow [SOLVED]Suggest a food based on a persons remaning calorie allowance

    I have what will probably be one of the most simplest tasks for you, but to me it seems near impossible!

    I have a table full of foods and their calorifiic value. I need a list of food that fall the total remaining amount of calories they are allowed for that day.

    A formula would be the best solution or if someone could point me in the right direction. Would be a great help!

    Thanks

    Can you not just use autofilter?

    Use code tags when posting your VBA code: [code] Your code here [/code]

    Thanks for your replies I sorted it used a vlookup to find the amount of calories remaining in the form then had it find an approximate match instead of an exact.
