SolverOkDialog Function
Description
Same as the SolverOk function, but also displays the Solver dialog box.
Before you use this function, you must establish a reference to the Solver add-in. With a Visual Basic module active, click References on the Tools menu, and then select the Solver.xla check box under Available References. If Solver.xla doesn't appear under Available References, click Browse and open Solver.xla in the \Excel\Library\Solver folder.

SolverOKDialog setCell:=Range("TotalProfit")
SolverSolve userFinish:=False
