Is there a rule for the layout such as e.g. first 3 chars are letters

another eg - ABC12-ABCRF . . .

THANKS

I'd also ask why you'd want to know this. You do realise they have very complex algorithms for calculating valid ids right?

mmmmm I smell something a bit fishy here.

Again like others have asked why would you want to know that ?

garywork · 27 Sep 2006 at 22:50

Why the beef about why i'm asking ?

haven't you ever wondered yourselves ?

like all threads , if its not your thing dont bother

that applies to me as well of course

Seriously:

I think I might get into trouble by posting a direct link, but there are loads of websites if you search google for the right words that will 'explain' (but not show) the key process.

It's similar to the Visa Mod 10 calculations that create valid credit card numbers and such.

Hard to understand at first, but once you sit down with pen and paper and go through it in simple steps it starts to make sense (but not complete sense!)
