Support for generating random passwords in ASP.NET

Hi,
I am building web in ASP.NET using VB.NET to code the pages. I want to gene
rate random passwords for users. I know that password hashing is built right
into the .NET Framework. I was wondering if there is any built-in support f
or generating random passwo
rds in .Net. If the support is built-in, can you show me how to do it.
Thanks,
JoeThere is no random password functionality built into .NET.
But there is the Math.Random namespace that could easily help you string
together some random characters.
I hope this helps,

It's ASP rather than .NET, but shouldn't take too much conversion.
