SolverDelete Function

Description

Deletes an existing constraint. Equivalent to clicking Solver on the Tools menu and then clicking Delete in the Solver Parameters 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.

Syntax

SolverDelete(CellRef, Relation, FormulaText)

CellRef Required Variant. Reference to a cell or a range of cells that forms the left side of a constraint.

Relation Required Integer. The arithmetic relationship between the left and right sides of the constraint. If you choose 4 or 5, CellRef must refer to adjustable (changing) cells, and FormulaText shouldn't be specified.

Example

This example loads the previously calculated Solver model stored on Sheet1, deletes one of the constraints, and then solves the model again.

Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
SolverLoad loadArea:=Range("A33:A38")
SolverDelete cellRef:=Range("C4:E6"), _
    relation:=4
SolverSolve userFinish:=False
