    Maybe

    This code calls the function
    Sub RandomNumbers()
    ActiveCell.Value = RandomNumber(1000, 9999)
    End Sub
    Here's the function
    Public Function RandomNumber(Lowest As Long, Highest As Long)
    ' Generates a random whole number within a given range
       Randomize
       RandomNumber = Int(Rnd * (Highest + 1 - Lowest)) + Lowest
    End Function

    Hi,

    Yes there is

    Sub rndnumber()
    Randomize
    ActiveCell.NumberFormat = "0000"
    ActiveCell.Value = Round(Rnd() * 9999, 0)
    End Sub
    Rule 1: Never merge cells
    Rule 2: See rule 1
