This method returns the globally unique identifier (GUID) of the interface that defined the error.
Syntax

Parameters
- pGUID
-
[out] Pointer to a GUID, or GUID_NULL, if the error was defined by the operating system.
Return Value
If the method succeeds, the return value is S_OK.
Remarks
GetGUIDreturns the GUID of the interface that defined the error. If the error was defined by the system, GetGUIDreturns GUID_NULL.
This GUID does not necessarily represent the source of the error. The source is the class or application that raised the error. Using the GUID, an application can handle errors in an interface, independent of the class that implements the interface.
