Do to the end users of this SS I can't use that approach,it has to be
automated.

Here the trick. Say you have numbers in A1 thru A100 and you want to
sample
ten of them with any repeats. In B1 thru B100 enter the formula:

=RAND()

then sort cols A & B by B.

This will scramble the material in column A.

Just pick the first 10 items.

I need to pull random numbers from a range without repeating any of
them
INDEX(A$1:A$10,RAND()*10+1
This works but it obviously is prone to picking repeats.How can I do
this with a formula without repeating..I can't use a VBA solution in
this spreadsheet.I can put a big clunky If in there to check each one
but theres got to be a cleaner way.
