|
Project Type
|
GUID
|
| Solution Folder | {66A26720-8FB5-11D2-AA7E-00C04F688DDE} |
| Visual Basic | {F184B08F-C81C-45F6-A57F-5ABD9991F28F} |
| Visual C# | {FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC} |
| Visual C++ | {8BC9CEB8-8B4A-11D0-8D11-00A0C91BC942} |
| Visual J# | {E6FDF86B-F3D1-11D4-8576-0002A516ECE8} |
