I was wondering if rand can be used with the alphabet A - Z.
If not, how else would you suggest doing it?

You could make a list() of every letter and then pick() a letter out of it.

Alternatively, there is always ascii2text.

Don't know if it can or not, but if it can't, then just use numbers 1-26, and then convert the number into the alphabet...

Applying Schnitzelnagler's rule
proc/RandAlpha()
 return ascii2text(rand(65,90))


You can save yourself from creating a list helping to saving your resources as much as possible! (Lummox JR advice)
