Hi
Can I would like to paste a list of words into one worksheet, and then on another worksheet (tab) have those words randomly generated. Is this possible?

cheers

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
Here's one way

in A1:A10 place your list of words

in B1:B10
=RAND()

in C1:C10
=INDEX(A$1:A$10,MATCH(SMALL(B$1:B$10,ROW()),B$1:B$10,0))

This will generate random words without repeats, ie it will sort the list into a random order.

Use F9 to regenerate the random words

Hi Thanks for you reply, that is almost exactly what I want…except can I make the C1:C10 result happen on a second worksheet?
