I would like to know if there is any way to create a lottery but with numbers
I have chosen already. I have 8 five digit numbers and I want to have the
computer randomly draw three every week.

Hi,

If iv'e inderstood correctly put your eight numbers in A1 - A8
Put this in B1 and drag down
=Rand()
select both columns and sort by column B. Pick the top 3 numbers
Tap F9 and sort again to get a different 3
