Can Excel fill in numbers to equal a predetermined total?
Hi! I'm fairly new to Excel and I'm not sure if it's possible to do what I
want to do but here it is... In column A, I have a person's name, then five blank cells, then in column H, I have a 28 (total). Is it possible to write a formula to have "defined names" (I already defined the names DAY=8, HALF=4) randomly filled into the blank cells in the row to add up to the "total"? Another question...Is it possibly to define a name to equal one thing in a row but something else in a column? Basically what I'm trying to do is make a self-filling schedule, based on a predetermined amount of hours per person for a five day work week, and also a predetermined amount of people for each day. I have been unable to find a template like this so I'm trying it on my own. |
