1226100	2011-08-25 10:36:00	Hi I am currently undertaking some study and am struggling with the concept of Goal Seek. I have a total of about $145,000 in cell D50, and I want to change a markup rate which I have in B6 (not a formula) so that the D50 cell contains $1.00. I have tried to use the goal seek in Excel (2010) but I seem to get a hideous number of negative thousands and the amount in D50 remains the same i.e does not change to $1.00. I am relatively new to this concept so any advice offered would be greatly appreciated. Thanks	AJD (16514)
