    Dice Rolling Excel Spreadsheet

    Hello all!

    I am in the process of making an excel spreadsheet to roll dice of different sides (4,6,8,20,100,etc.). I want to be able to tell Excel how many dice I want to roll and have each individual die roll be displayed. For instance, if I tell Excell to roll four 6-sided dice, it would return: 3,2,5,5.

    I know this has to use the Randbetween function, but how do you tell Excel to run this function x number of times and display the results too?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Nick

    That is really cool!

    What exactly does does the ROW command do? That is a new one for me! Works like a charm, though! Thanks!

    Row function simply returns row number of cell specified. See this..
