I just looked at the Chilkat site. This is not a free product by any means. Once you have a licence, you can make re-distributable apps (no source from chilkat) which include the material but that's the limit of it pretty well.

The XML component is free. At least the download is marked with (Freeware), the description says "free for both commercial and non-commercial use.", the interface contains no "UnlockComponent"-Method, and the description page contains no purchase-link.

Maybe I was looking at the wrong one. http://www.chilkatsoft.com/licensingExplained.asp & http://www.chilkatsoft.com/xml-activex.asp is what I was looking at. I see that they have different ones and the one referred to in this post is the freeware one.

So my bad, Sorry.

I only picked up on the XML parsing because I'm working on a prog that needs to read/write xml data and thought this may be a better / easier solution... now to just figure out how to get AutoIt to generate UUID's.

[AdamUL]

For a UUID Generator, look at this It would need to be converted to a function.

@WhiteStar

Maybe this can get you going

MsgBox(0,"GUID Generator",_GenerateGUID ())
Func _GenerateGUID ()
$oScriptlet = ObjCreate ("Scriptlet.TypeLib")
Return $oScriptlet.Guid
EndFunc

Ohhh no.... I didn't intend this to get hijacked with the UUID thing.

Please, this should be last post for the UUID, there was a previous thread that I missed but replied into it now..

Last night when I was searching in here the forums went offline for maintenance & so did not find anything... now things pop up everywhere.

Thanks a lot PTrex & AdamUL, simply superb!
