Random Number Non Repeating ...
I have the numbers 1 - 55 that I would like to display in a column randomly
without repeating. The numbers should be whole numbers only. Can you help me? I tried following some of the other posts, but I couldn't get it. Thanks. |
Enter the numbers 1-55 in a column, and in an adjacent collumn enter =RAND()
and fill down. Now sort both columns by the RAND column and you'll have the 1-55 shuffled. Bob Umlas Excel MVP "a_ryan1972" wrote in message ...

FWIW, another way, which will change whenever the sheet is calculated.
Cell A1. Enter the =RAND() function and copy down to A55. Cell B1. Enter the formula =RANK(A1,A$1:A$7), and copy down to B7. Hit F9 to recalculate...every time worksheet calculates a new random ordering. Roger Bob Umlas wrote: Enter the numbers 1-55 in a column, and in an adjacent collumn enter =RAND() and fill down.
