I would like to create raffle tickets in Excel. How can I do this? I know it
is possible but I haven't a clue on where to begin.

That would all depend upon how the ticket data is laid out and you give very
little detail.
Printing these directly from Excel can be a pain due to formatting.
I do up a lot of numbered tickets for a couple of associations I belong to.
I set up my ticket data in Excel in columns with a column for numbers then I
use Word Mailmerge to print the tickets.
Printing labels or tickets from Excel is trial and error but can be done.
Word does a fine job because it is designed for that type of operation.
For help on Word mail merge using Excel as the data source.

And a training tutorial for creating envelopes and labels.
The labels will be your raffle tickets.
