    Need a combination spreadsheet

    Looking to generate all possible combinations of 4 columns of 10 letters, resulting in 10000 different 4-letter combinations. I've seen other posts about this, but am lost when it comes to big formulas or macros. Wondering if someone can create a spreadsheet that can be modified with different data sets. Attached is the one I am currently focused on. Thanks.

    Re: Need a combination spreadsheet

    I created this spreadsheet and tutorial a while ago: https://www.excelforum.com/tips-and-...thout-vba.html It is currently set up for 3 columns of 5 letters, but it should be easy enough to adapt to 4 columns of 10 letters:
    1) Make another copy of column D
    2) Edit start and stop values for each column
    3) Edit and expand the text array that is currently in F2:J2.
    4) Make enough copies of the bottom row to get all of the combinations desired.

    Re: Need a combination spreadsheet

    Another one, based on a file I put together some time ago.

    Just copy the formulae down as far as you need to (I've only copied down to row 159).

    Hope this helps.
