I need to figure a way to make say cells A1 thru A10 produce random numbers from 0 to 9.

I would like to do it without a macro if possible. I also need a button to generate those random numbers. I know this button may make it impossible to not use a macro, but let's see if someone can. If it has to be done with a macro then so be it. I would appreciate it if someone could help me out.

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)

Use can use a formula

=RANDBETWEEN(0,9)

You say you want a button? That would mean a macro. On the other hand if you just want to generate a new set of random numbers based on the formulas in existing cells simply press F9 (this will recalculate your formulas, thus generating new random numbers).

Here is a macro version. This will insert random numbers in A1:A10 of the active sheet.

Code:
Sub RandomZeroToNine()
Dim i As Long
For i = 1 To 10
    Cells(i, 1).Value = Int(Rnd(9) * 10)
Next i
End Sub

Insert a shape
Right-click and choose Assign a macro
Select the macro

I am so sorry maybe I should have been more clear.

I need to have cells A1 thru A 10 generate a random set of numbers each cell being a different number than any other in the range of cells.
