J.J.,

could you explain what you mean by "read them in using a dictionary object"?
I don't see any xml or file i/o methods in the dictionary object, so maybe
you meant use of the msxml object for the i/o, and then store the data into
a dictionary?

thanks.

Chip

You could put all of them in an XML file and read them in using a dictionary
object. Or there are functions to read in files as well which you could find
from one of the vb.net tutorials or reference guides.

So I have to put all the names in by hand.
I can't use a txt file?

Tiler,

Aarons code allows for any number of choices, assuming the size of your
array has been set to the number of choices that you have. that's why
all
the use of the ubound(were and lbound(were functions; it also allows for
an array
with a lower bound of either 0 or 1, which does make it look a little
complicated at first glance.

the rnd(were function is the heart of his answer, it returns a random
number
between 0 and 1.

For using a hotkey, see the keyboard object's registerhotkey function,
and I
think the wiki beginning scripting article, part 2, actually has a
section
on how to do that. I'd bet the help for the registerHotkey does also.


hth,

Chip

But aaron,
What if you have 100 names.
I also need a hotkey for this.
Thank you.
