    Code for finding any combination of three numbers that add up to zero

    Hi Narayan, About five percent of the lines are matched by the system (I excluded them from the sample). They are always matched on the same date. I manually matched amounts were debit = credit (1:1). Most of them match the same day. I have a few outliers which I think are accidental. I did...

    Code for finding any combination of three numbers that add up to zero

    I have several reports where I copy sheets with lots of graphs and data points to a new workbook. I want to break the links to the graphs, but am a bit worried that I will get errors. I've tried it and for now it works fine. I've seen that Excel remembers the values. Is there a limit to the...
