How do you randomly generate numbers from 1 to 84 without duplicates in Excel
2007?

1) Download and Install "MoreFunc" add-in.

Hi,

the question isn't clear but try this. Select the cells you want the numbers
in and run this code. Because you are in the range 1 to 84 you mest selevt 84
cells or less

Sub Unique_Rands()
Dim FillRange As Range
Set FillRange = Selection
For Each c In FillRange
Do
c.Value = Int((84 * Rnd) + 1)
Loop Until WorksheetFunction.CountIf(FillRange, c.Value) < 2
Next
End Sub

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

Well..., I don't know how much of a "gambler" you are - but as a "Gimmick"
you are invited to try the proposal in the picture.
Any cell - in range F1:F84 must be blank.
An "X" points that that value was generated more than once.
Cells A1, B1 and F1 should be copied down all the way until row 84.
