Where does the list of DLLs in Add References come from?

When you right click on References and select Add References in VS.NET, the
..NET tab on the popup window is populated with all the framework DLLs, and
some other DLLs. I would think this list is configurable. How do I make my
own DLLs to show up in this list without having to click on Browse... to
look for them?

There are several registry entries to do this. For example:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\7.0\AssemblyFolders
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\AssemblyFolders

etc.
