Hi
I want to fill a column with random names (e.g. John, Alex, Mary, David etc) instead of typing them manually for education/study purpose. Is there anyway I can do that?
Thanks

Test for Multiple Conditions in IF?
Use AND(test, test, test, test) or OR(test, test, test, ...) as the logical_test argument of IF.

What is your data source for those names? Are you using some external content or will you be making say a "master list" that you can draw from?
