Default Random Sort

Yes. But I think it would be sweet if Excel offered this feature instead of
building a column of random numbers then sorting the table by that column.

There are times when I want to mix up a table order-wise. It
would be a nice feature for Excel to have a sort method that
would randomize the record set in a table.


What do you guys think about this?


Would not sorting on a helper column of random numbers not achieve what
you want?
