4 Rows and 4 columns using numbers 1 through 16 insert in the 16 numbers in all cells using every combinations should be 5 possible groups


example A1=1 B1=2 C1=3 D1=4
A2=5 B2=6 c2+7 D2=8
A3=9 B3=10 C3=11 D3=12
A4=13 B4=14 C4=15 D4=16
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
I need 5 groups of 16 cells with the numbers 1 through 16 inserted in each group. I need #1 to be with every other number only once, . #2 with every other number only once and so on

Try this:

Code:

  Dim dict As Object, i As Long, x As Long, y As Long, j As Long
  Set dict = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
  For i = 1 To 16
    dict(i) = i
  Next
  For j = 1 To 5
    For i = 1 To 16
      x = WorksheetFunction.RandBetween(1, 16)
      y = dict(x)
      dict(x) = dict(i)
      dict(i) = y
    Next
    i = 1
    For Each c In Cells(2, ((j - 1) * 5) + 1).Resize(4, 4)
      c.Value = dict(i)
      i = i + 1
    Next
  Next
End Sub
