Hello,

I need help to arrange 8 random number min = 1 max = 24 in the 6 boxes each box is filled with 4 numbers

For example in the cells C6:J6 I got 8 random numbers in ascending order i need to put them under each box with their corresponding value 2 & 3 go in the cell = M6, 5 & 7 go in the cell = N6, 13, 15 & 16 go in the cell = P6, 21 go in the cell = R6

With the same way row 7.... 8 & so on

For more detail the image is attached.

So move C5:J5 to C4 'cause I can't work from any image but from the data sample you shared where C5:J5 is blank,​
the reason why it's better to use this forum tool XL2BB or link a sample workbook on a files host website …​
Update also your profile in order people see which Excel version you use …​

That is not true, Excel 2000 supports add ins, although it might be the case that the XL2BB add in uses features that are not supported.
Excel 2000 also allows you to save workbooks ? If yo can save it then you can upload it to a fie share site.

Or maybe invest in a newer version that is more capable? With office 365 no vba is needed for such a simple task.

jasonb75, formula is giving #NAME? error, , it is because "IFERROR" function does not work in Excel 2000.

As far as I have search a lot about Add-Ins did not find anything might be some know and help here to give some link.

I appreciate your help

Here is a formula, tested on Excel 2000. Long and awkward, but it seems to work:

Iferror and textjoin both require newer versions (minimum 2019) that formula was an example to demonstrate that it is much easier to perform such tasks with newer versions of excel than it is with outdated versions.
As far as I have search a lot about Add-Ins did not find anything might be some know and help here to give some link.
Click on the XL2BB link below and it will tell you how to install and use the add in, although it may be different for excel 2000. Detailed information specific to such an old version is going to be extremely difficult to find. Much of it will have been archived or deleted and search engines are likely to prioritise information for newer versions as being more relevant.

Eric W, even it is an awkward but main part it worked, as I required that is more important for me. ?

I really value your help and time you spent working on this huge formula.

Good Luck have a great weekend.

Kind Regards,
Moti :)

Good Luck have a great weekend.
