Do you mean that you have a compiled DLL file or that you have a solution that contains a library project that you want to move to its own solution? If the DLL is already compiled and you don't have the source code then you'd need to decompile it to create a project. If you do have the source then it is already a project. If you want to move that project to its own solution then you just have to Remove the project from the current solution, create a new solution and add the existing project to it.

that's decompiling and it's not legal if it's not approved by author but you can add it as a reference.

That was merely a statement of fact. I really don't think that anyone who is asking this question is actually going to be decompiling any DLLs any time soon.

Edit: I guess the question that should be asked is "why do you need this DLL in a seperate project".
