I love Iterative Macros.

My take on the challenge. Went with the numeric up/down interface tool instead of the text box.

Nice macro, App practice! 

Surprisingly a macro is NOT actually needed.  if you use the RandInt function within a formula, it already provides unique random numbers for each record.  

Is that a feature or a bug?  You be the judge!  In this case we can call it a feature and use it to our own advantage.  Gives us an insight into how the RandINT and Formula tool operate.

Considering the validation of input data, I think Numeric Up Down tool might be better than Text Input tool.

Formula Tool in Coin Flip Macro
[head] = RAND() < 0.5
[HEAD COUNT] = IF [head]  THEN [HEAD COUNT] + 1 ELSE [HEAD COUNT] ENDIF
[TAIL COUNT] = IF ![head] THEN [TAIL COUNT] + 1 ELSE [TAIL COUNT] ENDIF

I'm always a bit nervous with any kind of macro.  But I got it working and have the macro and the workflow with the macro separated here since I doubt the macro will flow through.  Was a lot of fun but definitely challenging.
