I make 2 projects in one solution.
I can't add a reference of one project ot another.
I get an error : "A reference to Base colud not be added. An assemby must
have a 'dll' extension in order to be referenced."

Where is the problem ?

Go to your project properties dialog and set the Output Type to 'Class
Library' and rebuild.

The problem is both projects are "applications". VS.NET doesn't support adding references to .exes only to .dlls (although the command line compiler doesn't have this restriction).

What are the two project types? (windows applications, control libraries
etc)
You can only reference an library (which ends with .DLL)
