Reporting

Are ActivityID's for windows Events ever re-used after a period of time or reboot?

What I want to do is summarize a completed transaction of ActivityID's like Windows updates.  However, I do not know if the ActivityID is reused again after a reboot and may not be a part of the original transaction or a period of time passes within 24 hours of my reports and the ActivityID is reused again.  Disclaimer, I do not know that much about Microsoft Events... so maybe this sounds all wrong?
