How to put bounds/limits on Goal Seek function in Excel without VBA?
I'm using MS Office 2016 Professional Plus.
In Excel I'm trying to minimize a value in a cell by using What-If-Analysis and Goal Seek. But there is no options to set a limits on changing cell.
Here it is:
I can only set a target cell, target value and a changing cell. But I need changing cell to be changed within certain bounds: [0:1] (from zero to one)
Is there some way I can set bounds on Goal Seek without involving programming with VBA so it fluctuates within specified range?

Solution
Hi: use the solver instead of goal seek - this gives the control and flexibility you are looking for : binary constraints, integer and limits on other cell values in the linear path.
