6. Uncheck Create directory for solution.
7. Click OK.

Add existing projects

We provide the OOSqlBookWrapper and OOSqlLegacyBook projects for you to add to the solution. These contain application source code and references.

1. In the Solution Explorer, right-click the solution; then select Add > Existing Project.

Add project references

The two projects you just added to the solution need to be incorporated by reference. Here you create a reference from the OOSqlBookDemoWebApplication project to the OOSqlBookWrapper and OOSqlLegacyBook projects.

1. In the Solution Explorer, right-click the OOSqlBookDemoWebApplication project; then select Add > Reference.
2. In the left pane, click Projects.
3. In the right pane, check OOSqlBookWrapper and OOSqlLegacyBook; then click OK.
