View 8 RepliesI made a small license generator app with a datetimepicker, a textbox and a button on the form. When I ran the app and clicked the button to generate a license I got - 16DDD-06DDDD-09DDDDD, and each subsequent button click would get me a license with a different generated character (16444-064444-0944444, etc...).
I thought this was unusual as it should be generating a random character not a repeating one, so I stepped through in debug and the characters generated were random (161g2-06T5ip-0957H9k). I thought perhaps that I needed to seed the value with Now().Milliseconds, no luck, that still resulted in repeating characters. So I tried sleeping the thread and that generated the random values I wanted.

I've published a different take on a log in system on CodeProject [URL] and I've got some free time, so I thought I'd have a look at password recovery/reset.It was suggested on the article that I look into sending the account owner a single use, random url where they can reset their password if the account gets locked because of too many invalid login attempts/forgotten password.So far, I'm thinking I just have to generate a random string in a "recovery" field in the database table for the user's row and then check if the requested URL on the site is the same as the value for that field, then dynamically draw the page server-side.

I need to generate 'real' random numbers from 0 to 500 (e.g. 247.214, 477.125, 1.247, 54.078, 147.001 ......etc). I am using this method:
Dim Myrand As New Random
Dim Res As Double
For i = 1 To 10
Res = Math.Round(Myrand.NextDouble, 3)
Next
This method gives numbers between 0 and 1. if I use: Res = Myrand.Next(0,500), then this gives Integer numbers.
The questions is: Is this possible with (Dim Myrand As New Random) or I have to try another way (e.g. Rnd() ) for doing this?
i will like to generate four numbers at random, that will total 100 and assign each to a textbox.
