I understand that you are trying to apply RANDBETWEEN() formula in a column, and you want it to refresh each time to select a cell and press enter. Is that correct?

The formula you have entered in Cell C2 is correct. It should work in Excel and refresh each time you get into a cell and press enter.

You just need to copy this formula and paste it in the cell below. When you use Excel, as soon as you press 'Enter' key, the Random Unique Code will automatically change.
