ID number in My SQL

[Danielg42]

Hi, I'm in the process of creating a php script that syncronises my one database with the sugar database.
Because of the need to run the script regularly, I am attempting to do everything through My SQL and PHP.
When I look at the "accounts" table in the sugarcrm database, there is an "id" number/letters for every account.
They look like this.

19636ead-5126-d8e7-742a-44e340df363c
e14e705b-5693-717d-2609-44e3409a30b1
53b00dc3-12c8-8c60-fa1a-44e340e91a48

Is this number random? I've changed the number to several different values (in the same format) and Sugar doesn't seem to care, however, I'd like to be sure of this befor I actually try to write the random number generator into the script.

look in \sugarcrm\include\utils.php for

function create_guid()
