Once you have a GUID, then you don't need another.  Just update the version and the underlyi
ng code if that is what you are fixing.  If you were to create a new control from scratch, t
hen you would need a unique GUID.  The PDK has some tutorials in the Sample Directory on Per
lCtrl.  I am still hoping someone will help me with my problem of typelibs and WinScriptComp
onents which I posted to this group some time ago.

Hi,

I am currently doing some maintenance on a PerlCtrl and I am little confused
at what I need to update in the TypeLib.

####
=begin PerlCtrl

    %TypeLib = (
        PackageName     =>  'MyPackage::MyName',
        DocString       =>  'My very own control',
        HelpFileName    =>  'MyControl.chm',
        HelpContext     =>  1,
        TypeLibGUID     =>  '{C42CC1CF-4B4D-4944-9115-78D61B8FFB19}', # do
NOT edit this line
        ControlGUID     =>  '{705B2CC2-E404-4CA6-8EF9-E31342E3010D}', # do
NOT edit this line either
        DispInterfaceIID=>  '{846DC658-C2BB-454B-AE43-9CB3E4C2FB16}', # or
this one
        ControlName     =>  'MyObject',
        ControlVer      =>  1,  # increment if new object with same ProgID
                               # create new GUIDs as well
        ProgID          =>  'MyApp.MyObject',

#####

Do I just increment the ControlVer to be 2 and leave it at that or do I
"create new GUIDs" as the line below seems to indicate? If it is the later
do I do just need to update TypeLibGUID and ControlGUID and leave
DispInferaceIID alone?

Many thanks,
Dom.
