Excel mobile

Anyone direct me to Excel random numbers software please?
I wish to use my hx4700 as a...wait for it....Bingo calling tool, randomly select from 90 numbers. for coach trip.....nothing too fancy.
Currently I have used the basic excel (rand)function, but curious to find a more "automatic" formulae. I understand I am unable to use macros on my Ipaq.
I have MS Office Pro 2003 on my desktop with Win XP, where I use spreadsheets regularly.
TIA
Terry

=Int(90*Rand())+1

Terry,

Unfortunately, I do not know of any random number generating software for Excel mobile. However, the following formula will give you a random number between one and 90 within the cell.

=Int(90*Rand())+1

To force recalculation click within the formula (located in upper right of Excel application) then click the check mark. There may be another way to force recalculation however I don't know what it is.

If this looks as if it might be adequate for you let me know and I'll spend some time being sure that the probability of getting a 1 or a 90 is the same as that of getting the numbers between.

Good luck,
Humbaba3000BC

Hi
I have tried this suggestion, but it duplicates numbers, which of coarse I do not want.
