An other approach is to have a function that return a GUID, would solve a lot of headaches with uniqueness
it is a good idea!
MilliTime is not real time, it's effectively the number of milliseconds since first called (first time it returns 0, or very near to 0). That said, it is what TM1 uses internally everywhere it needs to know how long something took.
Whilst not opposed to making this, currently internal, function public, wonder if, given the reference to Now() and granularity of time, it wouldn't be better if we included the thousands of a second into the time values we return AND extend any function that can return a string representation of [date-]time to be able to include the thousands of a second as well.
