Is there a free program that will . . . ?

[SPX]

Generate sample hands? I need maybe 200,000 hands to use for my own purposes but I don't have a good, reliable program that can create them. I know that there are a number of non-free programs that can do it, but I'm too broke for that.

Any help?

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, I don't have Excel. Any other ideas?

I have a program that will randomly generate as many shoes as you need and save them as a text file. Would that work?

OpenOffice is free, and it will read and write Excel files.

Actually, Sonny, that would work great. Would you mind doing a bit of shoe generation for me and e-mailing it to me?

Here's a sample of a random 6D shoe that I generated. Is this what you're looking for?
