Hi, In case you are using Excel 2007 or can use Analysis ToolPac you can use =randbetween (lower_limit, upper_limit) with 1 as lower and 5 as upper limit. Otherwise you can use =int(rand( )*100) to generate random integers then divide the numbers by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 and select people based on the result, like if prime no select or if even no select.
Hope that helps, Regards, Anand On Nov 14, 11:26 pm, Beanbag <wolkely...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I have 20 ppl that i need to put in 4 groups with 5 each: > > First time > Group 1: 1,2,3,4,5 > Group 2: 6,7,8,9,10 > Group 3: 11,12,13,14,15 > Group 4: 16,17,18,19,20 > > The next week i want to form 4 new groups.
