   Class Library (VS 2005)
  My book (using VS.net) says this on the subject (for an exercise): "Use Solution Explorer an right click the upper alternative 'Favorites Viewer' (1 project). Choose Add | New project from the menu. This will open the Add New Project dialog. Choose Class Library from the Templates-list and name the project MyFavorites."The problem is that there is no "upper alternative 'Favorites Viewer' (1 project)". When I tried to add a class library in File | New Project, a completley new project was created and my old project was shut down.So, how do you create a Class Library in Visual Studio 2005?   
  I forget exactly how it looks, but in the solution explorer, right above all your projects is another piece of text you can right click.  In that popup menu will be Add -> New Project...   Hope that helps.-AJ   ;  In your solution explorer, right click on the solution name (something like: Solution 'xyz'), so you can add new projects (Add->New Project).If you right click on a project unter your solution name, you can add new classes or whatever you want (Add->New Item or Add->New Class).To open your solution browser if it's closed: View->Solution Explorer   ;Quote:Original post by Ludi83In your solution explorer, right click on the solution name (something like: Solution 'xyz'), so you can add new projects (Add->New Project).If you right click on a project unter your solution name, you can add new classes or whatever you want (Add->New Item or Add->New Class).To open your solution browser if it's closed: View->Solution ExplorerYes, I've understood that from a screenshot in the book (should have been clearer). The thing not existing is the solution name. The project name is there though and creating classes, modules and stuf is not a problem. Just the solution thing.   ;  If you only have a project (with no solution) and you want to add another project to it, save and close what you have then restart VS .NET. Create a new, blank solution (File->New->Project->Other Visual Studio Projects->Blank Solution). Name it, choose a good path for it etc... and then save it. Once that has loaded up, simply right click the solution icon in the solution browser (if you can't see it, View->Solution Explorer as mentioned above) then 'Add->Existing project'. Choose the project that you just had open and add it. For the new project, right click the solution icon again and 'Add->New project'. Select what you want, save it and now you will have two projects in the same solution.   ;Quote:Original post by rpg_code_masterIf you only have a project (with no solution) and you want to add another project to it, save and close what you have then restart VS .NET.

It doesn't SHOW the solution in the explorer when you only have 1 project in it (top item is the project).  You should still be able to add more projects using the menu though (I think).   ;Quote:Original post by XaiIt's a stupid VS 2005 thing.
