IntTemp = Int((255 * Rnd()) + 1)

A response was:

change the 255 to a 0 and you'll get the same number each time.

If you divide by zero, you actually break time.

Better than breaking wind, I suppose...though, as Shrek always says, "Bettah in than out, I always say!"

My price of admission is zero - I answer questions there.

While I agree OP was probably asking for a seed method, I like this answer:

Try this function

Function UnRnd()
UnRnd = 4 'my favourite number!
End Function

IntTemp = Int((255 * UnRnd()) + 1)

I think the guy wants to return the same value each time Rnd() is called based on a constant seed. The answer to his question is inside the Microsoft documentation[^].

It's also the answer that got the points in the Experts Exchange thread.

Thanks, that is a really good tip, I really hate them too God I Love "The Code Project" :-)

I bet they contracted that sight out to open source developers. <-- think about that. Who "accidentally" allowed the answers to show at the bottom. They probably guessed that the executive who paid them would never take the time to scroll all the way down. I'm thinking they guessed right.

Thanks. KHadden

Don't you all know we're suppose to keep this on the DL? :laugh: The last thing we want is to have EE actually start hiding their answers. Although, I suppose some of you are correct in that they keep the answers there so that search engines can read them.
