Hey guys, this is probably one of the most stupid questions ever.. but i'm having troubles randomizing a cell on each loop from 1 to 4.

Help would be appreciated

ie.. x = rnd(4)

I need the cell x to be randomized from 1 to 4.

[EDIT] This post can be deleted or left.. I figured it out..

My old code was shown above would return 0 to 4, so i tried..
x = rnd((3)+1) however that also would go from 0 to 4

It was because i didnt place the + 1 outside the main bracket, so the new working and proper code is; x = rnd(3)+1
