Re: [WiX-users] Best way to generate GUIDS ?
And if you happen to be using an Express edition without Macro capabilities, you can make a (very) simple console application that creates a new guid and (optionally pre-populates your clipboard)If you need further directions, I can post the few lines of code required /SimonOn 10/16/06, david adams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Jeff:I use WiX 2 with Visual Studio 2003 & 2005.

Re: [WiX-users] Best way to generate GUIDS ?
uuidgen ships with Visual Studio. You can generate multiple GUIDs using the -n parameter (e.g. if you need 10 GUIDs, use uuidgen -n10). Use the "Visual Studio xxx Command Prompt" shortcut in the Visual Studio xxx Tools program group. -- Mike Dimmick From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeff MacDuffSent: 16 October 2006 16:00To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.netSubject: [WiX-users] Best way to generate GUIDS ?
