Convert String to GUID that is Compliant with Option Strict

[jmhmaine]

I have the the folllowing code that works when Option Strict is Off:

Dim SearchID as string = "2F0B92F1-23E5-4CFA-B8D6-FAFEADE90EBC"
Dim SearchGUID As Guid
SearchGUID = GetConverter(SearchGUID).ConvertFrom(SearchID)

GetConverter is used with the following Imports Object:
Imports System.ComponentModel.TypeDescriptor

Is there a different way to convert a string to a GUID that is compliant
with Option Strict ON?

Thanks.
