>Look at the Help for RAND(). The second example shows how to do a random number from 1-10.

...which may not necessarily work in each case, as the target record may be deleted, or out of current index or something like that. There's a safer and not much slower option, locate for recno()>=nRandomNumber, then just check for eof().

Or, take the existing app and do something with it: https://www.levelextreme.com/Home/ShowHeader?Activator=17&ID=40436
