Please disregard that question I am an idiot. I will just generate random numbers between 1 and 15 and then multiply by 5. Sorry for the stupid question.

Thanks to those who responded, now just one more question to help the mathematically challenged such as myself...... How can I make sure the random value assigned is evenly divisible by 5? For example the range of value between 5 and 150 will only be 5, 10, 15, 20 , 25.....etc Thanks again. _____ From: Ben A Greenberg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 10, 2004 2:43 PM To: Morrier, Steve; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: MI-L Random Number Ranges.... Updating the column with: 5 + (rnd(1) * 145) should give you a random number between 5 and 150 Ben Greenberg GIS Coordinator NAI MLG Commercial 262-797-9400 -----Original Message----- From: Morrier, Steve [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 10, 2004 1:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MI-L Random Number Ranges.... Hi All, Is there a way to update a column with random numbers that fall within a certain range? I would like to update 500+ records with a value between 5 and 150. Is this possible?
