Hello,

I want to scramble the cells containing the telephone numbers.
I used the scramble software but it scrambles the numbers including the numbers in one particular cell which make my telephone number look bad,..

Is there any other way where I can jumble all the telephone numbers!!!

Thanks in Advance,



 
I don't get why you want to do this, but how about using a helper column with the function
=rand()
copy that formula down for all rows containing data, then sort on that new column.
