How to make a module common to several projects?

[J Trahair]

Hi. In old VB6 I could have a module common to several projects - just include it in the project. Additions made to the module in one project showed up successfully in the other projects.

In VB 2005, including a module in a new project merely copies that module into the new project folder, creating multiple copies of that module.

How can I make several projects share a 'master' module - which means I only need maintain one module not several?

When you select Add -> Existing Item, instead of clicking the Add button on the dialogue, click the down arrow on the Add button and select Add As Link.

Thank you. It's a very small down-arrow!
