Project Profile GUID

[spencer]

How does the PROFILE GUID impact cache or other calculations (ie
BCWS)? See the registry key we use below to create profiles for new
users. IF the same GUID is used for multiple users, will this create a
problem? If someone knows, please let me know. We are having cache
checkout and BCWS resetting to zero issues across our environment.


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\MS Project\Profiles
\IT PMO Production 2007]
"Name"="IT PMO Production 2007"
"Path"="http://project.amr.ith.intel.com/sites/ITMSPS/"
"AccountType"="0"
"UserName"=""
"Default"="Yes"

--HOW DOES THIS IMPACT CACHE and CALCS?
"GUID"="{8ACFFBF3-1C7C-4D28-897F-5E6770599175}"

"EntGlobalLastMod"=""
"ServerAllowsMasterProjects"="Yes"
"ServerAllowsLocalBaseCals"="Yes"
"ServerProtectsActuals"="No"
"DisableMacros"="No"
"DisableProjInfoGrid"="No"
"DisableSaveAsGrid"="No"
"CachedGlobalCPID"="0"
"LastDBBootCPID"="0"
"ServerCurrency"="USD"

Hi Spencer, I'm not sure, but by implication it can't be right as a GUID
should be a Guaranteed Unique Identifier! Having the same GUID's therefore
cannot be a good idea.
