I have a method that I am using to generate random numbers using
Random.Next. However, every time I call the method I get the same
random number. Is there a C# equivalent of Randomize is VB6?


Thanks,

Mike

Maybe something like this: Random r = new Random(DateTime.Now.Millisecond);


With best regards, ivang. E-mail: (e-mail address removed)

Chances are you're creating a new instance of Random before each call.
Instead, you should keep one instance of Random, and call Next multiple
times using the same instance.
