Actually

=combin(4,4) reveals the obvious. There is only one unique combination of
the letters A B C D

Now if we are talking permutations as she appears to describe, then

see John Walkenbach's site for code to generate the 24 possible
permutations.

=PERMUT(4,4)

Your code repeats characters - AAAA would be a possible result - which may
or may not be what she wants, but nothing with repeating characters was
shown in the example.

You need to know the number of items in advance. Using your example
there are 256 possibilities.

'------------------------------------------------------------
Sub TEST()
Dim MyRange As Range
Dim ToRow As Long
'------------------
Set MyRange = Selection '(eg.4 cells A1:A4)
ToRow = 1
For n1 = 1 To 4
For n2 = 1 To 4
For n3 = 1 To 4
For n4 = 1 To 4
ActiveSheet.Cells(ToRow, 2).Value =
MyRange.Cells(n1, 1).Value
ActiveSheet.Cells(ToRow, 3).Value =
MyRange.Cells(n2, 1).Value
ActiveSheet.Cells(ToRow, 4).Value =
MyRange.Cells(n3, 1).Value
ActiveSheet.Cells(ToRow, 5).Value =
MyRange.Cells(n4, 1).Value
ToRow = ToRow + 1
Next
Next
Next
Next
End Sub
