Generate a Random Letter in ASP

Generating a random number in ASP is easy; generating a random letter is just as easy.

Simply use the random number generater to generate a number between 26 and 97. This number cooresponds to the character (CHR()) of the letters a - z.

If you want to use other characters, here's a chart (use the decimal column).

Here's the function to generate a number between 2 numbers:

Function RandomNumber(LowNumber, HighNumber)
    RANDOMIZE
    RandomNumber = Round((HighNumber - LowNumber + 1) * Rnd + LowNumber)
End Function

Assign the function to a variable and pass in the LowNumber (26) and the HighNumber (97) and convert the value returned to the character it represents:

RandomLetter = CHR(RandomNumber(97,122))

That's it!
