Covert string to System.Guid, how??

[Jeff]

ASP.NET 2.0

I'm wondering how to convert a string into a System.Guid!

I have this code where I want to use the convert:
Message.DeleteMessage(hidden.Value);. Here DeleteMessage wants an argument
of type System.Guid, but the hidden.Value (HiddenField) has stored it as a
string. I need to convert the value of hidden.Value to a System.Guid for
this to compile, but how??

Any suggestions?`

try

System.Guid g = new Guid("f72941f4-57fa-46db-89ba-df4a17277b05");

Have you tried:

new Guid(hidden.Value)
