Hi All,
I would like some guidance on where it would be best to start. I have a set of data, extracted from a MySQL database into Excel. This data then needs to be randomly assigned to 5 different users based on their ranking. So as an example I have 100 records all ranked as: 15 Bronze, 50 Silver, 20 Gold, 15 Platinum. The users are ranked 1 - 5. However you could have two users equally ranked. So lets assume: User 1 = Rank 1 User 2 = Rank 2 User 3 = Rank 2 User 4 = Rank 4 User 5 = Rank 5 All the users need to be assigned the same amount of records (20), but User 1 needs to have more Platinum records assigned to them than any of the other users. User 5 needs to have more Bronze records assigned to them than the other users. So can anyone suggest a way of doing this? Can I do it with a SQL query? OR Would it be easier to do it with a marco? |
