Thread Difference between TGUIDField and TStringField
Wed, Apr 26 2006 7:56 PMPermanent Link

"Adam H."
Hi,

While I've been using TGUIDFields within my application for storing TGUID
Data - can anyone tell me the benefit in using a TGUIDField, over a
TStringfield. They appear to be extremely similar from what I can tell.

Thanks & Regards

Adam.

They're the same thing - TGUIDField is simply a sub-class of the
TStringField with a fixed size of 38 bytes.
