ID Generation

saurabh_chaturvedi — Fri, 24 Feb 2006 12:49:54 GMT

Hi,

I have a char(24) field. I want to generate a unique ID to fill up this field. The generated ID should not have special characters like *, !, {, etc. Basically I want only letters and digits. Is there a FM for this. Moreover is there a FM to generate unique IDs within a specified range without any special characters.

Thanks,

Saurabh
