Hello... I was wondering how come that if I try to generate tons of GUID''s it won''t never be the same....?? How does the GUID generator works..And why if another programmer generates a GUID it won''t never be the same as mine??!??! Thanks.
The guid generator is (partly) based on the date and time on your machine. The clock goes to 1/1000''s of a second.
(I believe the guid is also based on some other unique key, something along the lines of the time your OS was installed).
