How do I jumble data in Excel 2003?
There is a random value function =RAND(). Put this in the first cell of a
spare column and copy down. Then you can sort the data on this column. Note that you will get new random values every time the spreadsheet recalculates - whenever you edit or do anything. If you want to keep one set of random values, copy the column and Paste Values over the =RAND() formulas. "Naveen Khattar" <Naveen wrote in message ...

If, for example, your data is in column A, then in B1 enter:
=RAND() and copy down Sort both columns A & B by B. This will jumble or randomize the cells in column A. You can then pick a subset. -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200761 "Naveen Khattar" wrote: I am using Excel 2003 and want to Jumble the data for audit which we get in a sorted manner. |

Hi,
You could use a helper column alongside your data and enter the formula =Rand() Drag the formula down to the last row of your data Select your data and this new column and sort by the new column.
