If you create a virtual directory first, you can then create a new asp.net
project and point it to http://localhost/virtualDirectoryName.

In the Solution Explorer window, just right click the "References" icon and

automatically in the list you'll see, but you can hit "Browse" to find the
.NET component you want.
