I am trying to generate a number between 1-20, and seem to be doing something wrong.  I keep generating the same number over and over.  Below is a small test I tried, and RN always displays as 2192.

223  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
@keyR  ◄ If:
       Then:
224  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:      rn eq ""
       Then: rn(4,.0)=rand("20")
225  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:
       Then: rn=rand(" ")
226  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:
       Then: msgbox "Random Number ="<rn
227  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -
       ◄ If:
       Then: end

Any help is always appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
