I have the numbers 1 - 55 that I would like to display in a column randomly
without repeating. The numbers should be whole numbers only. Can you help
me? I tried following some of the other posts, but I couldn't get it.

Thanks.
 
Enter the numbers 1-55 in a column, and in an adjacent collumn enter =RAND()
and fill down. Now sort both columns by the RAND column and you'll have the
1-55 shuffled.

This worked great. Thank you.

FWIW, another way, which will change whenever the sheet is calculated.

Cell A1. Enter the =RAND() function and copy down to A55.

Cell B1. Enter the formula =RANK(A1,A$1:A$7), and copy down to B7.

Hit F9 to recalculate...every time worksheet calculates a new random
ordering.
