    How do I draw random numbers from a Weibull distribution with known parameters?

    Hello!

    I want to draw random numbers from a Weibull distribution using VBA. I have multiple Weibull distribution with known shape and scale parameter which I want to draw random numbers from. For a normal distribution I used: Worksheetfunction.Round(Worksheetfunction.Norm_Inv(Rnd(), meand,standard deviation,0)
    Now I would like something which generates random numbers from a Weibull function with known shape and scale parameter. Only I could not figur out how to do it.

    Hope you can help me!
    Thanks in advance!
