How about having all the letters and numbers in one column, a random number
in the next column. Sort on the random number column and then the top 11
rows will be your random 11 characters.

One way:-

Sub RandomGenerate()
For a = 1 To 11
x = Int(Rnd * 2) 'decide whether number or character
If x = 1 Then
Cells(a, 1) = Chr(Int(26 * Rnd) + 65) 'character codes start
at 65
Else
Cells(a, 1) = Int(9 * Rnd)
End If
Next a
End Sub
