Randon selection of a value
ROUND(RAND()*10,0)
That will generate random numbers from 0 to 10 and could lead to an error or
a non-random result depending on where the formula is entered.
Try this:
ROUND(RAND()*9,0)+1
Or this:
RANDBETWEEN(1,10)
This one requires the Analysis ToolPak add-in be installed if using Excel
versions prior to Excel 2007.

You can use =Rand() to generate a random number then use that to find a
value
from the list...
If you have 10 values in the list and your list is in C1:C10 then use
=INDEX(C1:C10,ROUND(RAND()*10,0),1)
