Thank you for your reply to my post about random number generators. It had occurred to me that external files might be the only way to solve my problem, but file reading was something that I had never attempted. After a couple of days struggle with it, I have finally got the hang of it, and it will do the job, albeit in a clumsy way. What I don't understand is what purpose the rand function is intended to serve. I can't think of any!
