I need to generate a good random number in an ALLBASE/SQL Stored procedure.
I need a Session ID for an IMAGE/SQL transaction that originates from the
web. I can't call the normal MPE functions from ALLBASE, so I have to 'roll
my own'. If anyone has a source for an algorithm that uses only a time
function, a looping construct (if then : goto and/or DO While) and simple
math to generate a random number, I'd sure appreciate a look at the logic
(any language will do).

Thanx....
