Posts: 719                Hello all,

I want to generate random characters (ascii).  Is the best method to use the 
Random function, but limit it to 255 or better from/to printable character only?

This BTW is for AES Insertion Value generation.

Thanks,
Tim

That's no the same.

First is to make a memoryblock and set .Int8Value() with rnd*256.
Second is adding characters with encodings.utf8.chr(rnd*65535)

Greetings
