Hi @jayross0117 ,

 

randint()  can  generate  0  to n  random nums   .

I changed  random formula to  :  RandInt([Max_Tile_SequenceNum] -1 ) +1

Thanks @benakesh. That's a cool solution. I tried it and it worked. However, I just have a quick question. My cell values can have a different number of rows after using text to columns. A single cell can have a 3 rows, the another cell can have 2 rows. How can I run the workflow dynamically when they have different no. of rows also? Thanks!
