Good morning all. I am trying to create a Test Randomizer for our QA section. We have 100 Questions on our Questions Sheet (A1 - A100) and I would like to click a button that will populate 25 random questions from the Questions Sheet to our Test Sheet (A1 - A25). I have found other Macros on other forums but I don't know how to adjust it to my specific Excel. Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

VBA Code:
Sub RandomizeTest()
    Dim questionsSheet As Worksheet
    Dim testSheet As Worksheet
    Dim rngQuestions As Range
    Dim randomIndex As Integer
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim selectedQuestions(1 To 25) As String
    Dim selectedCount As Integer
    Dim question As String
    Dim isDuplicate As Boolean
    
    Set questionsSheet = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Questions Sheet")
    Set testSheet = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Test Sheet")
    
    testSheet.Range("A1:A25").ClearContents
    
    Set rngQuestions = questionsSheet.Range("A1:A100")
    
    Randomize
    selectedCount = 0
    
    Do While selectedCount < 25
        randomIndex = Int((rngQuestions.Rows.Count * Rnd) + 1)
        question = rngQuestions.Cells(randomIndex, 1).Value
        
        isDuplicate = False
        For i = 1 To selectedCount
            If selectedQuestions(i) = question Then
                isDuplicate = True
                Exit For
            End If
        Next i
        
        If Not isDuplicate Then
            selectedCount = selectedCount + 1
            selectedQuestions(selectedCount) = question
        End If
    Loop
    
    testSheet.Range("A1:A25").Value = Application.Transpose(selectedQuestions)
End Sub
