Random Number Formulas
It's easy to generate a random number between 1 and 20 (in this example)
with "=randbetween(1,20)" . However, with this formula a number may be duplicated. How can a random number be generated so that no number is repeated ? In other words, how do I enter the formula to create unique random numbers between 1 and 20 ? Thanks ! ------------------------------------------------ ~~ Message posted from http://www.ExcelTip.com/ ~~ View and post usenet messages directly from http://www.ExcelForum.com/ |

Sounds like you want to shuffle 20 numbers
In column A, enter 1 to 20 in column B put in the formula =rand() then select A1:B20 and sort on column B. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "carlstedt" wrote in message ...
