Re: [MS_AccessPros] randomly chosen groups

 

John,


Should I put this in the query field where I want the random number applied?  Such as in the Group Number field?  And I do want the groups to be numbered 1-4 so would the statement be modified like this?

Group:  (Rnd([Household Number]) * 4) Mod 5

Russ





You can use the Rnd function to do what you want in a query.

Group:  (Rnd([Household Number]) * 4) Mod 4

That will give you a random number between 0 and 3 to assign your groups.  Add 1 if you want groups 1 through 4.  Use that in an UPDATE query to assign the values.

NOTE:  You WILL get random numbers, but there's no guarantee that an equal number of households will be assigned to each group.
