Randomize Listbox Value To Textbox?
Feb 23, 2009
I am making a random name generator. what I got is a large list of first names in listbox1 and a large list of last names in listbox2. when I hit a button, I am randomly pulling a name from both listboxes and putting them into 2 textboxes. for some reason they arent always random. I would say out of 50 names I will get 2 or 3 sets that are identical. why??keep in mind I probably have 400 first names and 200 last names. I should never get a duplicate! here is my
'randomize first names
Dim rnd As New Random()
Dim randomnumber As Integer = rnd.Next(1, ListBox1.Items.Count)
[code]....

I got the textbox and a listbox and a button, I can add names threw the textbox hit the button to add and it adds to the listbox, now I need to take the names from there and randomize them into 4 groups and make it into an array also, I just dont know how to take the names I entered and randomize them and put them into 4 different groups without repeating themselves, it is ok if three groups that have 5 and the fourth has 6. They just need to be randomized and put into 4 different groups,This is what I have, but I think its the wrong way to do this, to make the code work right atleast.[code]

so I am working on a program with items entered into a listbox. Then when the user clicks a button it will randomize the listbox items in just a random order obviously. I have tried adding it to an array and everything but I ended up just having to start over now because I couldn't find a solution. I can save the contents and everything I know how to do that it's just randomizing the items that I am struggling with. I have searched high and low and have yet to find a conclusion to my problem.

I cant figure out the code for vb.net that would randomize the interval of a certain timer. For each a = a + 1, there would be a different interval, and for each a = 1, a = 2, a = 3 etc. there would be a different text that will be shown on a label.

I am creating a Map Rotation Randomizer for my Call of Duty clan, and I am having an issue with understanding how to randomize the text from the list and placing it into another textbox.
Here's what it looks like right now:
All textboxes are multi-line.
When I click a button for a game (CoD4, MW2, WaW), it places the map list into the left textbox like:
mp_bloc
mp_broadcast
mp_crossfire
etc.
When I click the button with ">>>", I want it to randomize that list and place it into the right textbox like:
map mp_bloc map mp_broadcast map mp_crossfire
Or if I click it again:
map mp_crossfire map mp_bloc map mp_broadcast
And so on. I think I need to create an array, but I've never worked with those before as I'm still new to learning programming. I'm not even sure what controls I need to put on the form for that, if it even requires any.

I am currently working on a personal project. I have the template for my program layed out and now just need help with some codes to go in it. I've looked for codes online to give me a better understanding but have had no luck so far. What I would like to do is to be able to "randomize" a line of characters with only capital letters and numbers 0-9. I need the overall length to be 14, but realistically 17. The displayed characters would be in this form. XXXX-XXXXXX-XXXX, so the dashes would have to fall into that area with all other characters being random. I want it to link from the 1 buton to the 1 textbox.

I'm confused on when I should use the Randomize() function.It's my understanding that will give a new seed to the random based on the system clock, so should I therefore call it each time before generating a random number?I seem to recall reading once that it should only be used one time (like in the form load event), thus my confusion.

I have previously been told that I should always use Randomize() before I use Rnd() in a vb.net application, yet it always seems to work fine without it. What does adding Randomize() do for me in this case? It doesnt appear to affect my application in the least.

Say I am pulling the following table, I would then like to select an ID randomly. I understand how to select a random number using a Randomize() call followed by the relevant syntax but I want to pre-define the range.
i.e. Table Data
ID | Name
4345 Mike
3456 Lee
4567 John
There will be many more names but for this example you could use 3 or 4 etc..

I've seen a few other people ask this question and have tried the responses that they have had with no luck.
I am trying to use the randomize command to generate a truly random number. What I am doing is reading an access table to get the number of records, then seed the randomize statement with that number of records with the top range for a random number. I then use the number to select the record I want from that table via it's ID number. My code for doing that is working great.... except that it is always calling on the same record each time through the loop. Here is the code.
