Re: [WEB400] Generating session keys in RPG using HASH values

["Tom Jedrzejewicz @ San Pedro" <TJedrzejewicz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How about getting the current system time out to the millisecond?  
It isn't random, but it will be unique.

I need to generate a pseudo-random character string to be used as a
session key in my browser applications.  Has anyone used a hashing
method in RPG to generate a pseudo-random number and if so, could you
please post it.
