    Question Macro that handles placement at different tables

    Hi!

    I am looking for help on a VBA-macro that will do the following

    I have a set of people that I want to meet each other. Lets say there are 12 tables and 60 people. 12 of the people are going to stay at the same table all the time. Let's call them hosts.

    Now, I want there to be a number of meetings arranged in which the host is joined by 4-5 people. After a while, everyone except the host will change position.

    Ideally, everyone should meet everyone else exactly once. I guess that this is not possible though. The primary condition is that everyone should meet everyone else and secondly, repeat meetings are to be kept to a minimum.

    I first thought I could simply do this by hand, using simple COUNTIF functions. However, this proved to be too much work.

    Any help appreciated! Thanks!

    Re: Is this possible?

    KaptenKuf, welcome to the forum.

    However,

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution. Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.
    To change a Title on your post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.
