    Random Number Non Repeating ...

    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.

    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.
