    Random Name Pairing (Macro or Forumla)

    Hi All:

    Hoping for some advise on how to create a list of randomly paired names based on two different positions (director and manager). It's for a duty roster, so the names will repeat to cover a year.

    These are the notes I put in the sample spreadsheet:
    Goal is to randomly pair Dir to manage to create a list of duty for the week starting in Col E.
    There are 14 directors and 28 managers (currently)
    Director names will repeat 3-4 times for the year, managers will repeat 3-4 times.
    But would prefer directors weren't paired to the same manager; meaning each director manager pairing is unique.
    Would like a macro or formula to create the pairings in Col F and G.

    I was able to get close by assigning random numbers to each name, but it leave the issue of giving too many to one person and not enough to the other. I can do all this manually, but was hoping for a way to modify. Thoughts?

    As always, thank you for any insights.
