View 10 RepliesI have code that generates random numbers 1 - 90, what I would like is when the command button is pressed the numbers are generated every 5 seconds, I have attached the workbook.
View 5 Replies View Relatedmy spreadsheet logs call references and total times, as well as the date.
All the data is stored in the worksheet 'Data' while I want this report to be generated under the worksheet 'Admin' - I do not want it to be live either, I would want it so you press a button to generate the report so the data does not change (hopefully making this easier in the process).
There are 2 things I want to do with the report, first is to log all the calls by date to generate an average per day. Secondly, I want to generate a list of the 5 longest calls so these can be reviewed.
I'd like a spreadsheet that pulls out a random name.
I'll put in a lookup table, George, Fred, Ralf, Steve, Peter.
Sometimes Fred will come up, sometimes George will.

I did the StrokeScribe plug in etc, but I can't find a way to reference the value of the QR from another cell. it only appears to let me change each QR by right clicking and changing it in the properites which is worthless.
I got this code from this board and it works OK for generating 1 password. What I want to do is to generate X amount of passwords on to sheet2, so if I use cell B1 as the amount of passwords required it will generate that amount on sheet 2. I tried doing a loop, but had no luck with it, (Not ruling out user error at this end)
Sub PasswordGenerator()
Dim Password As String
Dim PasswordLength As Byte
Dim LC As Byte 'Loop Counter
Dim strRndmChr As String
Dim LAC As Byte 'Lowest Ascii Character
Dim HAC As Byte 'Highest Ascii Character
Dim UseSymbolics As Boolean
Dim HasSymbolics As Boolean
Dim RandomNumber As Byte
'Set parameters.
PasswordLength = 14...........
I am organizing a sports tournament and would like excel to randomly generate the teams for it.
We have 20 people who will be organized into 10 teams of two. how to setup the formula to have two people randomly paired together without duplication. The names will be further used in other formulas for points calculations.
So, I have the names as A1:A20 and then would like the teams generated from B1:B10 and C1:C10 with the team being the row and the team members in the B and C columns.
I am trying to create a random name generator. I have tried something like this...
=INDEX('TM Names'!$A$2:$A$36,INT(RAND()*35+1))
But sometimes it will give you the same name 2 or 3 times in a row. I need it to pull up a different name each time, from a list of names I already have.
In Column A I have a list of 8 team names.
In column AB I have a list of 28 weeks written in date format.
In column B I'd like to chose one week from the 28 weeks listed in AB at random. But B2 - B9 can not have the same date (ie could not have two dates for the 19th of April).
How exactly is that done?
Alternatively - is it possible to have in Column AA the 8 team names. In Column AB the 28 weeks. In Column A a random team picked from column AA and in Column B a random date picked from Column AB. Both column A and Column B can not have duplicates... There's 28 weeks with 8 teams - therefore I only need 8 unique weeks.
I would like a template that allows me to create of a randomized raffle. How to create one, but need it for a raffle I am holding, where some participants have more tickets than others.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHas anyone seen an Excel program that will generate words based on letters entered. For example, if I had 10 cells in a row, and each cell contained a letter (duplicates are okay), what words could be derived from arranging those letters in random sequences.
It would need the ability to accept any letter of the alphabet, A thru Z
E A L R C T S S U C
___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___
How many words could it generate, and what are the words?
I assume it would have to reference a spelling dictionary.
It could be used as a spelling learning game, etc.
I like to know if this can be done using vb.
If I have a list of names of associates B2 to B32. Can I randomize the list in any order.
Then if I need to want that list to only randomize B2 to thru B30
Then if I need to want that list to only randomize B2 to thru B28
And so forth.
Sort of being able to pick from a pop up message box or userform that will ask you how many names to randomize in that list.
Does anyone know of an Excel macro or function that can generate say 1000 strings of 6 numbers from 1 to 49, without repeating the same combinations?

I wrote this to help me generate a random password for a workbook. I am happy with it so far, but I was wondering if there is a way, to shuffle the order of the variables? So, instead of MyPassword always being A, B, C, D, E etc
Sub RandPass()
Dim A As String, B As String, C As String
Dim D As String, E As String, F As String
Dim H As String, I As String, J As String
Dim K As String, L As String, M As String
Dim MyPassword As String
Dim v
ReDim v(33 To 47) As Variant
A = Chr(Int((UBound(v) - LBound(v) + 1) * Rnd + LBound(v)))..............

I need a formula to create random letters down a column: A-F. Probability of A=3%, B=6%, C=8%, D=11%, E=14%, F=16%. I've got it worked out to where each letter is a header of a column ("A" is in A1, "B" is in B1, etc.). My question is: how do I consolidate that in one column, so that, "A" for example, reads ABFCBACFBFBECEABCEABCEAFBCEFBCAFEBCFAEBFC...? I'm using the random number generator for the 6 columns...thx

I am looking for a product that uses excel to create a random test form a bank of questions. I have 50 questions in all and I need a random test of 35.

Random Question
I could even shorten it a bit by placing like this. MATCH(SMALL($A$2:$A$4,B2),$A$2:$A$4,0). Of course this is only the start and it would have in column B 1-50 and in column C&D 1-35 for the selection process. Then I was going to set up on sheet 2 my list of questions 1-50 and my idea was to use 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, & 1.4 for the answers to question 1 and then vlookup. so that when and if question 1 is part of the 35 random then I could pull the answers over as well. but as I started the 'animal' will get bigger and bigger fast.
I have a range of cells that have values from 1 to 7 in them. What I would like to do is to have the next column generate a random number from 1 to 7 that does not generate the number that the cell next to it has. for example if cell A1 has 6 in it, I would like cell b1 to generate a random number other than 6 in it. if cell A2 has 3 in it then cell B2 would generate a number other that 3 (1,2,4,5,6, and 7).
