Bingo Card Generator
 

I wish to produce some bingo cards for some fun with friends. Can anyone help
with a solution? The problem is designing a random number generation process
that automatically fills the card.

Each card is arranged as three rows times nine columns. In the first column
are numbers from 1 to 10, the second column is numbers from 11 to 20 etc. up
to 90

There are to be only 15 numbers displayed on the card, so there will be 12
cells that will be blank.

Numbers are to be displayed in their respective columns in ascending order.

Hello Bob,

I've created a "Bingo Cards" workbook - in a 5 x 5 layout.
It generates random cards - 2up on a page - and prints them.
You are welcome to do what you want with it.
Email me at XX (remove xxx)
and I'll send it out.

Regards,

Hi Bob,
I was looking for a similar solution recently but ended up designing my
own. It's a UK style Bingo Sheet designed in Excel 03, and has 6
tickets per page, each ticket measures 9x6 cells, and spread randomly
across all 6 tickets are the numbers 1-90. I've designed a macro to
generate a single 6 ticket sheet and print it, so you just need to run
the macro for however many sheets you need - HOWEVER - I haven't yet
figured out how to evenly distribute the numbers 1-90 so that there are
exaclty 15 numbers per ticket, but it's a good start anyway. If you
want a copy, send me an email darklordateclipsedotcodotukNOSPAM (change
at to @, dot to . and remove NOSPAM from the end)

Update - Each printout now contains 6 tickets with the numbers 1-90
randomly placed, but in such a way that each column contains the
correct numbers for example, column 1 has the number 1-9 randomly
distributed, column 2 has the number 10-19 randomly distributed etc.
Each ticket contains 15 numbers. Each ticket is 9cells by 3cells. The
macro generates the random placment and then prints 1 sheet - simply
run the macro each time you want a new sheet. The form is unlocked, so
you can check out and edit it in any way you want.
