If your project is called “myProj”, then the file name is “myProj.vbproj”. (Make a backup first…) ...
高皓正 生命有Take 2佈道會. If you speak Cantonese and are interested in knowing a little more about Christianity, here is a good 30-min video sharing. What I like about Zac Kao’s sharing is that it is very real. It is not filled with religious jargons, compared to other “preachy” sharings that turn people away. [youtube &hl=en_US&fs=1&] ...
