How to Add Reference in Visual Studio .NET

This tutorial serves as a guide on how to add a reference to your Project. I created this separately so that I can refer this anytime when I have to mention adding a reference to you project.

Step 1. Click Project then click Add Reference as shown below:

Step 2. After that select the component that you’d like to make a reference.

In this example I make a reference to a System.Transaction to allow me to use TransactionScope. For more info about this Class open the example at “Dataset Transaction”
