I used to have a random number generator that would generate all the numbers
between 1 and x and not repeat any. That would do it. I am not sure if I
still have the program, but a Google of that kind of random number generator
might find it.

Subject: Randomizing records in a file
I have a file that contains around 12 million records. I need a way to
randomize the order of the file in the most efficient method. Does anyone
have any ideas?
Thanks,
Albert
