Hello

The nature of our system requires the use os a Random Number Gererator !

x = RandomInit(1,10)   :- This works perfectly for getting number from 1 - 
10

However, if the 2nd number is much higher, for example RandomInit(1,161510) 
then a certain pattern develops if running this 1000's of times

Before I do some further testing, is there a known problem with this 
function ?  Or is there a limit on the range of numbers ?

Ver 1.90.355

Many thanks for any help
Chris

Sorry, I should have put this in the Generic Group

Please ignore it here as I have re-posted it there

Chris
