In any project, Can't we refer classes directly, (without addingphysically in the project)?

[Rachana]

Hi !
I am new to .net. Presently, Working in vb.net 1.1
i have Created one class project and one client project (2 separate
solutions)
In the client project , if I try to ' add reference' for class,
nothing is shown under project bar.
I have to cumpulsorily add class project into my client project (add
existing class), then only it shows class name under reference-
project
bar.
does it mean every time I have to add required no. of classes
physically, in any project? Then again give the reference of each?
Can't it directly refered without adding physically?

In Class project, I have used 'build Solution' from menu bar.
In Client project, I tried 'browse' option,too.
But it does not show class name untill physically added. ( file type:
component files)

What is the way to generate DLL?

Thanks,
Regards,
Rachana

You need to set a reference to the assembly containing the class. This will
allow you to set up a namespace in your client project and then you can
reference classes in the referenced assembly.
