Hi,
I have an app that uses the Xojo random class with seeds to create 
repeatable strings of pseudorandomly selected numbers. It worked fine 
until I made a 64 bit version. A file saved on a 32 system bit does not 
open correctly on a 64 bit system.
A little research indicates that this is due to the Random class 
depending on Endianess.
So I think the simplest way to fix this is to find (or write) a random 
method that does not depend on Endianess. Does one exist? Or can someone 
point me to some information about it?

Thanks,

Don
