Hello,

I have a macro that runs Solver in Excel, it currently uses two different ranges as the variable cells. See the code below.

VBA Code:
    SolverOk SetCell:="$D$27", MaxMinVal:=2, ValueOf:=0, ByChange:= _
        "$C$17:$C$23,$C$7:$I$11", Engine:=1, EngineDesc:="GRG Nonlinear"
    SolverOptions MaxTime:=30, Iterations:=0, Precision:=0.9, Convergence:= _
        0.9, StepThru:=False, Scaling:=False, AssumeNonNeg:=True, Derivatives:=1
    SolverOptions PopulationSize:=200, RandomSeed:=0, MutationRate:=0.999, Multistart _:=False, RequireBounds:=True, MaxSubproblems:=0, MaxIntegerSols:=0, _
        IntTolerance:=0#, SolveWithout:=False, MaxTimeNoImp:=30
        
    SolverSolve userFinish:=True, ShowRef:=0
    SolverFinish KeepFinal:=1

Instead of having an absolute reference to $C$7:$I$11, I would want to only select the rows of the range where K7:K11="Unlocked" (note that this is a separate column). Is it possible to achieve in a simple way? I have attempted creating a named range in Excel, but I have so far been unsuccessful. Maybe it's easier to solve within the macro, however my VBA skills are nonexistant.

Thankful for any help!
