Is it possible to get excel to generate a random number >0 (but not equal) & < 1 (but not equal). I just need to use it in a mathematical formula that doesn't like 0 & 1.

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
Try something like:

=MAX(0.000001,RAND())

Where 0.000001 is your minimum value. Hope that helps!
