title: Generating GUID
body: <p>I am thinking to use a GUID in my .net app which uses SQL Server. Should I be writing a stored procedure which generates the GUID on each record entered or should I be directly generating it from the application.</p>
  
  <p>Reasons for asking the question (If am wrong correct me in this):</p>
  
  <p>I (as/pre)sume:</p>
  
  <p>When generating the GUID from the database, you can assume that the DB remembers the previous generated GUID  where as the application remembering it is difficult.</p>
