    Re: MsgBox Random Title Generator

    The Split function returns a zero-based array.

    Rnd generates a decimal number uniform in the interval [0,1) (i.e., it includes 0 and excludes 1), so n*Rnd generates a number between [0,n)

    Int() returns the whole number just <= its argument.

    So to generate a random number uniform in the range of say [0,10], how would you combine those three functions?...?

    Sorry, this is all greek to me. I never had any schooling or any training on this kind of stuff. based on what you've said here, this is how I concluded one of my thoughts that I would need to make it be + (total number of my items) but that's not the case either.

    I do thank you for your help and willingness to teach me, but I'm just not catching on.
