Razzak,
You also forgot to mention that the GUID is used by RBASE as part of the .$$$
file names used by RBASE.
Very correct, James!
That's the reason of having "no conflicting" SCRATCH (.$$$) files, using the
latest and greatest versions of R:BASE!
I also use the latest (CVAL('GUID')) function to generate random IDs, as well.
Example:
SET VAR vUniqID TEXT = NULL
SET VAR vUniqID = (CVAL('GUID'))
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
