Thanks, but all I can find on auditnet is a list of companies that sell audit software. Where is the free version located?

Our IT Department created a random number generator for us to use. This works with the majority of our audits and is very helpful.

you can generate your own random number list in Excel.

Blue, I hate to admit this, but I'm not as familiar as I should be with Excel. How do you generate the random numbers list? What is it under?
