Specifying GUID for Patch.

[font="trebuchet ms"]I am creating a patch using Msimsp.exe.
[font="trebuchet ms"]
[font="trebuchet ms"]Is there a way to generate a GUID for this patch or can i specify a GUI on my own in the specified format? How to verify that my GUID is unique?
[font="trebuchet ms"]
[font="trebuchet ms"]Thanks.

There are innumerable tools, command-line and script-driven, for generating GUIDs.

As for uniqueness, there apparently *could* be clashes but the odds on it happening are astronomical. Apparently. There's probably a discourse somewhere. Try Wikipedia.
