Hi all,

Can anyone help me please:

I am trying to generate random lotto in 8 groups of 8 rows each.

The aim is to have 8 groups with the following criteria.
  • numbers appears only once per group;
  • if 16 & 27 appears together in the same row in group 1, it does not appear together again in any row of the other groups;
Optional

  • There should be no 4 number combinations in the rows that was previously selected in draws.

I am currently using the following formula:
Sheet = Calculations
In the culumns I have:
All formulas is dragged down
A =RAND()
B =RANK($B3;$B$3:$B$54)+COUNTIF(C$2:C2;C2)-1
