sounds correct BUT - when i take the PDB with Unique ID = 61 74 69 6F (hex),
and copy it to another place, the new one have an ID = 2C 00 00 00 (hex).
i don't think it's correct, too many zeroes.
if it will help, in the DataPrv.h it says :
DWord uniqueIDSeed; // used to generate unique IDs.
// Note that only the low order
// 3 bytes of this is used (in
// RecordEntryType.uniqueID).
// We are keeping 4 bytes for
// alignment purposes.
