Sami,
I certainly can jump in. Here's the doc's.
RANDOM.EXE Version 1.1 Copyright 1993 Dennis McGrath
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYNTAX: (UDF('RANDOM.EXE','MIN MAX [HOWMANY]'))
Returns a random number string between MIN and MAX. If HOWMANY is defined,
then a comma delimited set of numbers are returned. If an error occurs
then an error string will be returned.
MIN and MAX may be integers between 1 and 2,147,483,647.
HOWMANY may be any number from 1 to 128.
RANDOM.DAT is created in the current directory to save information
RANDOM needs to remember from one call to the next. The only time RANDOM
uses the system clock is the first time you call it. In a multi-user
system, as long as all users work in the same network directory, the
RANDOM function will act as if all users were one. This is critical to
avoid unwanted duplication of numbers.
set var vtemp text = (ctxt(.vmin) & ctxt(.vmax) & ctxt(.vhowmany))
set var vrand text = (UDF('RANDOM.EXE', .vtemp))
