			Random Numbers, version 1.0

		Distributed as Freeware from Spyder Software
				April 1995


INSTALLATION:

You will need the following four files to run Random Numbers:

RANDNUM.EXE	(the executable program file)
SPIN.VBX	(custom control for Spin controls)
THREED.VBX	(custom control for 3-D controls)
VBRUN300.DLL    (Visual Basic 3.0 run-time DLL; sorry, this file is not
                included in the distribution ZIP file)

You may put the RANDNUM.EXE file anywhere on your system; however, SPIN.VBX and
THREED.VBX need to be in your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.

The VBRUN300.DLL file is required to run programs (such as this one) that have
been created with Microsoft's Visual Basic, version 3.0.  The VBRUN300.DLL file
is rather large (389k) and thus is not included in the distribution ZIP file.
VBRUN300.DLL may be downloaded from CompuServe, America Online, the Internet,
and many local bbs's.  VBRUN300.DLL should also be in your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM
directory.


USING RANDOM NUMBERS:

To run Random Numbers, simply input values for the Low Value, High Value, and
number of Iterations in the respective text boxes.  Default values are Low Value
= 1, High Value = 10, and Iterations = 1.  Values must be integers that follow
the following rules:

	1.	Low Value may not be greater than High Value
	2.	High Value may not be less than Low Value
	3.	number of Iterations must be non-negative

You may either manually input values of your choice or you may click on the spin
buttons to advance or decrement the values within the above ranges.

Once you have inputted the desired values, click on the "Generate Random
Numbers" button.  Random Numbers will beep and then display a set of random
numbers within the given range.  The number of random numbers generated will
equal the number of Iterations you chose.

If you want to generate a set of Unique numbers, simply click on the box labeled
"Unique Values in Set".  This feature is useful for generating lottery numbers.
NOTE:  You will receive an error message if you attempt to generate a unique set
in which the number of Iterations exceeds the High Value.


REVISION HISTORY:

Version 1.0:
The first version of this program was released in April 1995.


COMMENTS?:

Random Numbers is distributed as freeware.  This means it was written purely to
facilitate my own learning of the Visual Basic programming environment.  If you
