GUIDs

[Guest]

The NewGUID function returns a 36 character string

Is this correct? Are not GUIDs 32 characters

CODE

Imports System.Securit
...
Private guiGUID As New Gui
...
rowTable.TableKey = guiGUID.NewGuid().ToStrin

Thanks

36 characters including the separating hyphens. If you dont want the
hyphens, use the "N" specifier as the format.

rowTable.TableKey = guiGUID.NewGuid().ToString("N")

They are 32 characters not counting the 4 hyphens included for
formatting....

(8 characters)-(4 characters)-(4 characters)-(4 characters)-(12 characters)
