Now I feel pretty stupid, as a Coldfusion developer with more than 5 years experience not remembering createUUID!
Anyway, CF's UUID is the same as SQLs uniqueidentifier -------------------------- Converting from a string constant in the following form (xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx, in which each x is a hexadecimal digit in the range 0-9 or a-f). For example, 6F9619FF-8B86-D011-B42D-00C04FC964FF is a valid uniqueidentifier value -------------------------- I guess in the last few years I have really turned away from using data manipulation at ColdFusions end, and perform all actions within the db, which speeds up things. Besides being stupid and not remembering CF's UUID, I still believe my point in my previous email applies RE: using UUID for primary key..
