    Using Randbetween on a large scale

    Hi,

    Im hoping that there is a formula or Excel has an easy way to complete a very tedious task i have to complete.

    I have a very long list of names and a number next to them which indicates how many tickets they have.

    e.g.
    Bob Smith 9
    Tom Smith 6

    Now, i need to use the =RANDBETWEEN() formula to assign e.g. 9 tickets to Bob Smith, with each ticket number in an individual cell. The second issue i have is that i need my long list of names to have unique ticket numbers (not repeated)

    I have attached an example of what I am trying to achieve.Attachment 336070

    Hope someone can help?
