Default Rand() function

Excel spreadsheets using the rand() function in Excel
2000 are not behaving the same way in Excel 2003. The
distributions that were "almost-normal" are now
significantly non-normal. Does anyone have a pointer to
how to fix this problem ?

Perhaps:

The RAND function returns negative numbers in Excel 2003

Otherwise, RAND() in XL03 is *far* more "almost-normal" than XL00 or
XL02.
