Default Randomly fill in rows

I stand corrected

Just a head's up, but
This formula will try to do [a little less than 1% of

the time. ]

=INDEX($G$1:$G$100,0) which will result in an error

value rather than
returning a date

in column b enter

I have ColumnA with values in 11,000+ rows. In

ColumnG I
have 100 dates. How can
I randomly distribute those 100 dates in ColumnB so

that
ColumnB has one of the
100 dates for each of the rows in ColumnA? In other

words, I want a
corresponding date in ColumnB for each row in ColumnA.

Thanks!

Steve
