vsmash 14 Dinosaur

G'day,

I'm wanting to generate non-sequential 12 character codes to use as coupon codes or gift vouchers in mssql server 2008. I wanna avoid generating a random and checking existing, but i don't know if it's possible to generate shortened guids? like maybe a nuid or a suid?

any advice?
thanks
