Random Numbers
How does one create random data (containing numbers and letters) for raw data purposes?
RE: Random Numbers
Hello Anish
Thank you for your question
I usually format a column as text first, then in the first cell I would type AB123 for example and then drag this value down into the cells below. Excel should automatically increment the last number, giving you the random values.
If this resolves your question, please mark it as resolved. If not, please reply with more information.
Kind regards
Cress
