coverting GUID to int...

[AT76]

Does anyone know how to convert a GUID to type int?

Thanks!

Why would you want to do that? Cant you just generate a random int for this?

thanks tperri...

another question: I'm trying to do the following:

courseID = (HttpContext.Current.Session[COURSEID_SESSION_KEY]);

courseID is of type System.Guid

(HttpContext.Current.Session[COURSEID_SESSION_KEY]) is an object.

Is there a way to do this?

You will have to use ctype or if you have vs2005 you can use directcast or trycast to convert it to type GUID.

What is in your session variable?
