Default Random Number Generator

I was wondering if I could get a better random number generator than the one
in excel. I was also wondering if the VB generator is any better than the VBA
generator. Thanks in advance.

Default Random Number Generator

If you are using xl2003, the random number generator has been greatly
improved.

Default Random Number Generator

"Excel Power Expander" contains a very "detailed" random number generator. It
allows you to generate different type of random numbers, including normal
distribution, exponential, etc. Also, it includes "random seed"
implementation. (You can generate the same set of numbers at any time.)

Also, besides random numbers, it can generate random characters, etc.

Detailed documentation included.
