    Question Anagrams

    My name is not Cradino.
    Cradino is an anagram of my name "arcindo".
    Who can help me developing a formula or a macro to make excel generate combinations with all anagrams of my name??????????
    Thanks

    Re: Anagrams

    arcindo

    User defined function for you....

    Function SCRAMBLE(text, Optional recalc)
    ' Scrambles its single-cell argument
    ' If second argument is 1, then recalc it each time sheet is calculated
    Dim Num As Integer, i As Integer, rpos As Integer
    Dim temp As String, text2 As String
    If IsMissing(recalc) Then recalc = 0
    If recalc Then Application.Volatile
    If IsArray(text) Then text2 = text(1) Else text2 = text
    Num = Len(text2)
    For i = 1 To Num
    temp = Mid(text2, i, 1)
    rpos = Int((Num - 1 + 1) * Rnd + 1)
    Mid(text2, i, 1) = Mid(text2, rpos, 1)
    Mid(text2, rpos, 1) = temp
    Next i
    SCRAMBLE = text2
    End Function

    Usage is =SCRAMBLE(cellref) or =SCRAMBLE(acrindo)

    If you want result to be re-scrambled each time the sheet calculates....

    =SCRAMBLE(arcindo,1)

    Another method is by macro.........See John Walkenbach's site for code or a
    downloadable workbook.

    Did you know 'carthorse' and 'orchestra' are anagrams?
