Default Create a New Random Number Every 2 Seconds

See Chip Pearson's page on using Application.Ontime

http://www.cpearson.com/excel/ontime.htm

for starting with code:

to generate a random number between 1 and 10

Range("B9").Value = int(rnd()*10+1)

Hi,

Just wondering how I can create a whole number between 1 and 10 every 2
seconds for 2 minutes on the press of a button?

The number will paste in to cell A1 and be overwritten every 2 seconds
when a number is generated?

I'm quite new to VBA with Excel so if anyone can recommend some free
easy to understand tutorials, please let me know.

Thanks :)
