The only option I can think of is to set the output type of the importProject (which you want to import) to a dll (Class Library) then rebuild the entire solution. Then, in the main/root VB project (the solution you want to add the importPorject in) add a reference to the import project DLL...

If you need the binary form of the project then do what was said above.

If you need the source code and files from the other project. Then right-click on your solution, select "Add Project...". In the dialog box that comes up, navigate to the project you want to add and click "OK". You should now see the project in Solution Explorer and it is now a part of the current Solution.

Hope this helps.
