    How to refresh sheet and keep results of a cell that keeps changing

    Hey all, sorry to crosspost but I haven't gotten a response in the other forum.


    I'm VERY new to Excel/VBA (know next to nothing)


    I have a couple cells in a sheet that are depending on the results of a lot of previous cells, including RAND()s.

    I want to refresh my sheet thousands/tens of thousands of times then create a distribution of the results found in these cells.

    For example I refresh, and cell D10 for example can have different values of 5, 10, 0.5, 20, etc. And I'd like to run this several thousand times to get a good idea of what the distribution of results looks like.

    It would be painstaking to do it manually, is there any way I can automate the process?

    Thanks!!!


    (Can't link previous post because I don't have enough posts yet)

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    .
    Interesting concept.

    What I envision is Sheet 1 where the constant updating of random numbers would occur and Sheet 2 where the numbers would be stored for review.
    But that is only what jumps out at first thought.

    What would your "random sheet" look like ? How many cells would be involved in the random number presentation ? The smaller the selection, the
    easier it would be to create something.

    Anyway ... I'm curious. What do you have for review ?
