Dim success As Boolean
success = False

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

success = False

Dim fortuna As New Chilkat.Prng

// Set this equal to True if the generated password must include at least one digit (0-9)
Dim bDigit As Boolean
bDigit = True

// Set this equal to True if the generated password must include both uppercase and lowercase chars.
Dim bUpperAndLower As Boolean
bUpperAndLower = True

// The generated password must contain one of the following non-alphanumeric chars.
Dim otherChars As String
otherChars = "@#$%*"

// Exclude chars that appear similar to others:
Dim excludeChars As String
excludeChars = "iIlLoO0"

// Generate 8-character passwords:
Dim i As Int32
For i = 1 To 10
    System.DebugLog(fortuna.RandomPassword(8,bDigit,bUpperAndLower,otherChars,excludeChars))
