Rnd (Random) in VBA
 

Hello. I'd like to use a Random number generator to provide a number
from 1 to 6. I would then have the result 'posted' to cell "B2".

If the result is a 6, I would have another random number from 1 to 6
generated that would be 'posted' to cell "B3" (offset B2 by 1). This
would continue on as long as the result comes back to be 6 for each
new random number. (Does that make sense) If the results are
anything but 6, then the chain would end.

Result 1 = 6 (Cell B2 = 6) new Random Generated number for cell B3
(Result 2)
Result 2 = 6 (Cell B3 = 6) new Random Generated number for cell B4
(Result 3)
Result 3 = 6 (cell B4 = 6) " "
and so on and so forth.

Sorry for the repetitiveness of the data. I wanted to make sure it was
clear.

Thanks for any assistance.

Rnd (Random) in VBA
 

In this example, Rnd will result in a number between 0 and 1, so to ge
a single random digit you must multiply by 10, so to get a numbe
between 1 and 6 you'll have to multiply by 7.

Randomize
For x = 1 To 5
MyValue = Int(Rnd * 10)
Cells(x, 1).Value = MyValue
Next x
