I need a formulas to randomly pick 10% of a number of cells in the same columb and shade those picked.Can anyone help
 

Excel Facts

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
One idea :-D

Use an extra column and put random numbers in there with the random formula.

Then use this column to shade 10% of them ( 20 biggest numbers of 200 or so).
Use LARGE formula in Conditional formatting for that.
