    Okay, does Rnd work in VBScript?

    Four times I've called this ASP. Each time it creates a file with a random number. Each time that number has been the same. Is the random generator really that bad or does Rnd just not work in VBScript?

    Okay, found this at MSDN.

    Before calling Rnd, use the Randomize statement without an argument to initialize the random-number generator with a seed based on the system timer.
    So at the top of my script is a single statement.

    Code:
    Randomize
    That is just so wrong. ROTFL
