How I create a randon number?

[Rafael_-_FAELJS]

Hello!

How do I create a number random? I want it just a number that never it repeat (when somebody open the file/form).

I would like that was only 6 numbers. Example: 548758

Is it possible?

If you do not want the number to repeat then a random number is not what you want. A random number generator will produce the same number eventually. If you do not want a recurring number I suggest a function that gives you the number of milliseconds from an epoch. This will almost guarantee that you will not get the same number unless two users open the form at exactly the same millisecond.

Hi Paul, thanks!

Can you give me a example about this function millisecond?

Here is an example form ....the form will generate an error when you open it because you do not have access to the web service that is being called ....simply ignore that. You are interested in the 1st two examples on the form.
