I assume you mean to limit the percentage to a certain range...? &nbsp;Otherwise, a &quot;random percentage of the files&quot; could be anywhere from 0 to 100%. &nbsp;You sure you didn't mean &quot;randomly select a percentage of the files&quot;...?

Yes you will specify the source,destination, and percentage to be randomly selected. So no matter the total of the files I need to randomly select a given percentage, say 10%.<br />

I need to use VB or VBA in excel 2007 to parse a selected folder and choose a random percentage of the files within for QA. Those random files then need to be moved to a second folder for QA review. The selected filenames need to placed in a list within excel for logging purposes.<br />
<br />
Is there an easy way to do this?

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
