and just for another method, if you have the Analysis ToolPak installed:

=RANDBETWEEN(1,6)

If this function is not available, and returns the #NAME? error, install and
load the Analysis ToolPak add-in.

On the Tools menu, click Add-Ins.
In the Add-Ins available list, select the Analysis ToolPak box, and then click
OK.
If necessary, follow the instructions in the setup program.

In the formulas below, it struck me as odd you used INT in the VBA one but
avoided it in the Excel one. Is there a programming reason for this, or is
it just a personal preference?

Thanks
Darren

Trunc is more descriptive, but not available in VBA. The INT
worksheetfunction has no relation to the VBA INT function.
