This is a simple WinForms app (.NET 1.1) that converts Windows GUIDs between different formats. It is especially useful for LDAP programmers as it supports octet string and LDAP filter string representations of GUIDs. We use this tool frequently in conjunction with search tools like LDP to finding things by objectGUID and such. Enjoy!
