Converting to GUID structue?

rayko #1 / 6	Converting to GUID structue? Hello all, When using the TypeLib to get some data, some of the info comes back in the form of: 476D8D0F-381B-11D2-A610-00AA00C14AF9 And then I want to use that info in a function like: FindConnectionPoint(....) The first parameter requires a GUID structure, how do I convert that TypeLib number into a GUID structure? TIA, Ray K.

CheckAbdou #4 / 6	Converting to GUID structue? Take a look at AfxGetClassIDFromString(..) or CLSIDFromString() CLSIDFromProgID() -- Cheers Check Abdoul ---------------- Quote: > Hello all, > When using the TypeLib to get some data, some of the info comes back > in the form of: > 476D8D0F-381B-11D2-A610-00AA00C14AF9 > And then I want to use that info in a function like: > FindConnectionPoint(....) > The first parameter requires a GUID structure, how do I convert that > TypeLib number into a GUID structure? > TIA, > Ray K.

Ajay Kalr #5 / 6	Converting to GUID structue? As shown in documentation, you need to link against Rpcrt4.lib. -- Ajay Kalra [MVP - VC++] Quote: > Ajay, > Thanks, almost there, it builds but now I get a link error.... > UUID uID; > UuidFromString((unsigned > char*)("CE0E92DC-6083-4614-8A28-764E1D5B5359"),&uID); > error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol Quote: > ?????? > Ray K.
