in reply to Win32-API-Guid

libwin32 0.18 which is bundled with the latest ActivePerl has a function ( Win32::GuidGen() ) which generates GUIDs using the API.

See http://search.cpan.org/doc/GSAR/libwin32-0.18/Changes

Thats a totally mess !!!

      Win32::API should be installed on your system. Are you using ActiveState Perl?
