Default Random Number Selection

Thanks for the quick reply, but what I am looking for is an auto generator.
Where it takes my list of values and randomly select X amount of numbers and
generate a list for me?

Put the list in column A and in B1 enter:

=RAND() and copy down

then sort columns A & B by column B. This will shuffle the numbers in
column A.


Just pick the top 20 in column A.
