Because the LCID is stored in the GUID in hexadecimal format, you may need to convert it to decimal in order to determine the language of the GUID. For example, 0409 hexadecimal is equivalent to 1033 decimal, which translates to English.Sample GUIDIf the GUID starts with 90280407, you know that the GUID was created by the initial released version (9) of an Enterprise edition (0) of Microsoft Office XP Professional with FrontPage (28), and that the language of the product is German (0407 hexadecimal = 1031 decimal = German).APPLIES TO
