This doesn't:

function GenerateGUID()
	declare integer CoCreateGuid in ole32.dll string @guid

	declare integer StringFromGUID2 in ole32.dll ;
		string @cCLSID, string @cUnicodeString, integer nLen
		
	local sGUIDBuffer, sTextBuffer, sGUID, nLength
	sGUIDBuffer = replicate(chr(0),16)	&& 128 bit buffer
	if CoCreateGuid( @sGUIDBuffer) != 0
		return null && error
	endif
	sTextBuffer = replicate(chr(0),80) && 39 unicode chars + null terminator
	nLength = StringFromGUID2( @sGUIDBuffer, @sTextBuffer, 40 )

	if m.nLength = 0
		return null  && error, probably buffer too small
	endif

	sGUID = strconv( left( m.sTextBuffer, nLength*2-1),10)
	return sGUID
endfunc

The result is an up-to-39 character string of the form like {093A8107-E749-456E-9379-B2CCE2793694}

If you want another format, sGUIDBuffer is the raw binary form.
