random number help

[superman1478]

This code is what i'm using to display a random number for my auto alcher. Someone suggested that i have it display numbers with decimals,and i cant seem to get it to do that.

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
Randomize
text1.Text = Int(Rnd * (6 - 2 + 1) + 2)
End Sub

How do i have this display decimals, not just whole numbers?

One thing, instead of 6 - 2 + 1 why not just 5? It is inside () so it would be the same as rnd * (5) + 2

edit: instead of using a whole number try like 5.3235 or something...

The reason i have the +1 there is because is place of the 6 i have cmdinterval.text.

I have tried doing things like

Text1.Text = Int(Rnd * (6.3235 - 2.505 + 1) + 2.505)

Well using Int changes it to a whole number.. so just remove int. If you need, you can find a different function that won't remove the decimal.
