Hi

I need a (Delphi) algorithm to create a names and addresses database for testing

It needs to create ficticious names in the right formats with the statistically correct balance of first letters in the first name and surname

The addresses also need to be statistically correct

eg more surnames start with s than z

       more house numbers are below 30 than above 1000 etc

Anyone got the appropriate stats? or address formats that I may need?
