Wouldn't know what to say until I've had a look at the tag. Where did you download the custom tag? I cannot find it on the Macromedia site.

In the British and German lottery/lotto, your hope would be to match the 6 numbers that the organizers draw from the pool 1,2,3,...,49. The following application of the custom tag will generate 6 random numbers for you to enter in the lottery:

<CF_LottoGen Number="49" Game="6">

In the Dutch lotto, one would hope to match the 6 numbers drawn from the pool 1,2,3,...,45. If I want the custom tag to suggest 6 numbers for me to enter in this week's lotto, I would then run

<CF_LottoGen Number="45" Game="6">
