I assume you mean a string representing an 8 digit random number? If so... > import random > random.randrange(00000000,99999999) > > The code works but sometimes it picks a number with 7 digits.

But when you convert it to a string (see assumption above!) you can pad it with zeros passString = "%08d" % random.randrange(0,99999999) Is that what you want?
