The format is: "GUID\major.minor\localeid\wrappertool" For example, "{00000205-0000-0010-8000-00AA006D2EA4}\2.5\409\tlbimp" is returned for ActiveX Data Objects 2.5. |
Remarks
All components have a unique identifier. The Identity property gets that information. This property is unique for each reference, as an exception is raised if you attempt to add a reference with the same identity as a reference that is already in the collection. This property is suitable for indexing the References collection, using the Item.
Examples
See the example in Reference.
