Hello,

I apologize for such a newbie question, but I'd like to know if there's any
way to reference the assembly GUID?

Thanks!

What assembly GUID? In .NET v2.0 you can do
yourAssembly.ManifestModule.ModuleVersionId if that's what you're
looking for.

Hi Mattias,

When you create a new Windows Application project, the Assembly.vb has a
GUID, along with author, company name etc. I'm just wondering how to
reference that elsewhere in the program. DOes the
yourAssembly.ManifestModule.ModuleVersionID do the same thing?

You can get it with
yourAssembly.GetCustomAttributes(GetType(GuidAttribute)) or
Marshal.GetTypeLibGuidForAssembly(yourAssembly).
