Thanks

Your easiest solution would be to use your favourite spreadsheet program (mine is IBM Lotus Symphony Spreadsheet, but this also works in OpenOffice Spreadsheet, and Microsoft Excel) and fill each cell with the following formula:

=randbetween(1,6)

Replicate to your hearts desire.

cndBlank, If your needs are more specific than this, tell us more and we may be able to help.

Do you have Microsoft Excel or are you an Open Office user? There are Dice Roller Macros in the SR4CG_DK sheet which are usable in excel, and use modular functions that could be used by other Macros to accomplish most any kind of dice rolling...

Elaborate and one of us Geeks will figure it out for you, or find a program or sheet where someone else already has.

Either open office or Excel 97.

Perhaps having a numbered column at the top so you can count off however many you need and having the five and sixes bolded.

And Thank you very much.

Try this little excel sheet out.

If you get ?NAME errors, try the following steps in Excel:

1. On the Tools menu, click Add-Ins.
2. In the Add-Ins available list, select the Analysis ToolPak box, and then click OK.
3. If necessary, follow the instructions in the setup program.

According to excel.tips.net the RANDBETWEEN function should work with excel 97.

A note on calculation refreshing in excel:

A refresh happens Automatically/Manually/Before Save based on your settings in Tools->Options->Calculation

If it is set to Manually, you have to tell the sheet when the recalculate. If it is automatic, EVERY TIME you enter any data, all cells will refreshed. This means if you are entering in numbers and see a result you want to keep, the instant you enter in a new number all of the RANDBETWEEN functions will recalculate all all results will change.

See this alternate version, with Calculation refresh set to Manual. In excel 2003 you press F9 to manually refresh.

Your actual easiest solution is to use something like Python. Something like:

from random import randint
print [randint(1,6) for x in range(10000)]

Adjust numbers as desired.

Also, end spreadsheet abuse.
