Certainly, if they differ, there's no problem. (And, to fess up, I was considering the last string as part of the string, not the filename, but it leaves us with the same situation.) If they're the same, one would overwrite the other. As I say, it's unlikely that the randomly-generated numbers would be the same, but it's possible. I'm a little paranoid about unlikely-but-possible things, but I think they're worth keeping in mind.
