I have no exact suggestion for the stated question. However, if you can describe what your going to use 100 random records for then I might be able to provide some idea. Most processes that require "random" input are for things like Customer Satisfaction Surveys and other "data analysis" type processes. And how you approach such functions are generally related to why your doing what your doing. Not to mention that "random" actually means different things depending on what your doing too. (Random strings for password generation, PKI key generation and Customer Satisfaction Surveys all have various degrees of "randomness" that is needed.) -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap.... Pick two. Never ascribe to malice, that which can be explained by incompetence.
