Need Excel Formula to Randomly assign one of four values to a cell

Unread postby harryadkins » Tue Mar 22, 2016 8:20 pm

I need help in creating an Excel formula that will randomly assign one of four specific values to a cell. The four values are Box, Tank, Gondola, and Flat. This is designed to populate a Team Track in a simple Switchlist Generator utility. I've been able to customize several functions to help create realistic switching operations, but this one has me "beat."

Thank you in advance for your help.
