Hi all,
HYCH I am using the code below to run a randomsier, but i would like to randomly generate numbers from 1 to 128 and put them into cells in column B ie 1st number generated into b1, 2nd number would then go into b2, 3rd into b3 and so on, any help with the code for this, if it is possible Random code using just to show a random number. Sub RandomNo() Randomize MyNumber = Int((128 - 1 + 1) * Rnd + 1) MsgBox ("Number Generated ") & (MyNumber) Range("H8").Select End Sub |

Sub RandomNo() Randomize MyNumber = Int((128 - 1 + 1) * Rnd + 1) If you just want random numbers between 1 and 128 use RANDBETWEEN(1,128) If you want 128 unique random numbers, put 1:128 in col 1, =Rand() in col 2 and sort on col 2 as one solution. -- James Silverton Potomac, Maryland E-mail, with obvious alterations: not.jim.silverton.at.verizon.not |

I don't have a VBA version of my second method but I think it shouldn't be too hard to program. Sub RandomNo() Dim Counter As Long Dim NumRows As Long, NumCols As Integer Dim r As Long, c As Integer Dim Total As Long Range("a1:a129").Clear Counter = 0 NumRows = 128 NumCols = 1 Total = NumRows * NumCols For r = 1 To NumRows For c = 1 To NumCols Counter = Counter + 1 Cells(r, c) = Int(Rnd() * 128) Next c Next r End Sub -- James Silverton Potomac, Maryland E-mail, with obvious alterations: not.jim.silverton.at.verizon.not |
