    finding value of cell from sum cells gives same value

    hello guys,
    am trying to make an excel sheet in my work , and i have got a serious problem.

    the problem is:let us assume that i have in cell (A1)450 and in cell (b1)200
    (b2)250
    (b3)300
    (b4)150

    what i want to do is to highlight any cells if i sum 2 or more of them can be equals to my A1 cell in this case if i sum B1 and B2 it will be = to A1
    same goes B3 and B4


    i dont know if this can be done in excel or not,but any idea is appreciate.

    Re: complicated formula

    You could try this macro

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    Open up the VBA editor by hitting ALT F11

    Insert a new module by hitting Insert - Module

    Paste the macro into the empty sheet

    Hit ALT F11 to get back to the worksheet.

    Run the macro by going to tools-macro in Excel 2003 or the view ribbon in Excel 2007/2010.

    Re: complicated formula

    Please take a moment to read the forum rules and then amend your thread title to something descriptive of your problem - not what you think the answer might be. (think google search terms?). Once you have done this please send me a PM and I will remove this request. (Also, include a link to your thread - copy from the address bar)

    Many members search our previous posts, and thread titles play a big part of the search. I doubt anybody would do a search based on your title?

    To change a Title on your post, click EDIT POST then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Regards

    Don't think you'll get much luck with that new title...
