in a Dbthere are 2 fields which contain 'matching' data. (there are other columns too)
A Genesis
B Exodus
C leviticus
D Numbers
E Deutronomy
I want to shuffle both columns so they are both randomly mixed up
B Numbers
A Exodus
C Detronomy
E Leviticus
D Genesis
How do I do it?
I have explored the random function but that randomises the records but keeps each record intact.
I then want to print these two columns to a report which numbers each line - easy enough once I have the query BUT I want to print an 'answer page ' at the end of the report which will look like this:-
1 B Numbers (5)
2 A Exodus (1)
3 C Detronomy (4)
4 E Leviticus (3)
5 D Genesis (2)
I thought of appending a unique ID string to each pair and only displaying the first part of the string e.g
A@1 Genesis@1
etc and I can do this but maybe there is a simpler way.
Lastly supposing I would want to keep the order of column one and only shuffle column two?
Thanks for any advice!
