Yep, or just use shell on Mac and Win (no idea about Linux, but might be similar to MacOS)!

Put these two lines into a custom property of your stack or wherever

Set TypeLib = CreateObject("Scriptlet.TypeLib")
result = TypeLib.Guid

And then use this function to get a UUID:

function get_uuid
    if the platform = "MacOS" then
    put shell("uuidgen") into tUUID
  else
    do (the YOUR_CP_NAME_HERE of stack "your stack with the CP") as VBScript
    put the result into tUUID

  ## Comes in {} on Windows!
    delete char -1 of tUUID
    delete char 1 of  tUUID
  end if
  return tUUID
end get_uuid


Best

Klaus
