Default How do i sort rows randomly?

I want to choose 50 random rows from 10,000 lines of data and paste it into a
new sheet. The only way I know is to use a random number generator to
randomly select the records and then copy/paste the data out out, row by row,
fifty times, which is time-consuming. Is there a way to randomize my entire
data table by row so that I can take the first fifty rows all at once and
know that they've been randomly selected? Thanks. Jeremy
