Generate ordered list of alphanumeric strings of length 4 in c#

I have a programming question to generate an ordered list of
alphanumeric strings of length 4.
>From 0000 to ZZZZ, numbers first, then one alphabet rest numbers, then
two alphabets rest numberst, etc.

EG 0000-9999 then A000-Z999 then AA00 to ZZ99 then AAA0 - ZZZ9 then
AAAA - ZZZZ

Sniff, Sniff, Sniff... smells like homework :-)

Do you have an algorithm in mind and are unsure how to write it in C#? I am
sure if you post that with specific language issues, people will be pleased
to help.

Mark.
