Title: Selecting records at random.

Hello,

I have a table of 99769 records.  I want to select out 200 of these at random.  Is there a way of doing this automatically in MapInfo rather than generating a random number list and picking each record out manually?  I am using version 8. The table has a column of unique numbers entitled ID.

Thanks for any help
