Generate a random number of any length

Download and unzip the file linked below directly to your C:\Program Files (x86)\AccuZIP6 5.0 folder.
https://www.accuzip.com/files/forum/genrandom.zip

Import your list, and create a field that you want the number to be stored in using Edit menu>Fields. The field LENGTH determines the highest random number that will be generated. If the field length is 4, then the highest number could be 9999. Character fields are padded with 0, e.g., 0001

Click on Edit>Command, and run this syntax, substituting the word fieldname with the actual field name you created:

=GenRandom("fieldname")


Click Run.

You can then close the command window, and you'll see a random number filling that field, and they will all be 100% unique.

I wanted to take a minute to write accolades for your employee Eric Lambeth. I have been calling on Eric for training and help in the Accuzip software since May and I want you to know that from a client standpoint, he is second to none! Eric has gone way above and beyond in helping me learn and navigate your software as well as helping us through some crazy situations we have encountered. It is clearly evident that he knows this software inside and out. It is also evident that Eric loves the customer and is willing to do whatever it takes to help – he has even answered emails and called me on the weekend to help through some stuff I was unsure of! I cannot express enough how wonderful Eric has been for our organization. I will tell you that I came to this organization with a background in BCC software with plans to transition to BCC software. Eric’s knowledge, guidance, training, and willingness to help at all hours of the day/week has sold me on Accuzip! Your software solution is more user friendly and the support staff far exceeds BCC! I am also looking forward to investigating your other software solutions.
