I have a list of people that I was able to randomly assign to four groups, pods 1-4. I now need excel to look at the names that were assigned to a pod a put that name in a seat assignment. But I am running into the issue of thExcel grabbing the same name for more than one seat.
ANy assistance would be great!

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
I'll assume you want to populate B20 to E23.
