Converts a human readable CLSID into a binary CLSID. This is the inverse of the StringFromCLSID function.
CLSIDFromString(cClsID)
Parameters
- cClsId
A human readable CLSID e.g. "{002D2B10-C1FA-4193-B134-D86EAECC5250}".
Return Value
The CLSID (binary character).
Remarks
A CLSID is a globally unique identifier that identifies a COM class object. If your server or container allows linking to its embedded objects, you need to register a CLSID for each supported class of objects.
Example
lcGuidString = StringFromCLSID(CLSIDFROMPROGID("Word.Application")) lcClsId = CLSIDFromString(lcGuidString) ? lcClsId
