View more than one project/solution in Visual Studio. Ask Question 127. But you cannot have many solutions open at once. – Mike Nov 2 '10 at 15:42. If you have two separate solutions, then you cannot view them simultaneously in the same VS instance. However, you can open multiple instances of VS and tab between them. An alternative would be to import the projects from one solution into the other, thus putting all of your projects into one solution. You can do this by following these steps: • In the Solution Explorer, select the Solution into which you want to import a project. Right-click, and select Add->Existing Project from the context menu. • In the file chooser, find the project file that you want to import (it will end in.XXproj where XX is the language you're using). • Click Open and voila! Your project is imported. Two ways come to mind. • Open another visual studio window and open the second solution in it. • It would be preferable to add your existing projects to one solution, just right click and add existing project and navigate to the project file(csproj).

When you debug, the selected as start will run. • For interest sake you could open another multiple solution windows to view different projects at the same time. There is a way to store multiple solutions in one instance of VS. Attempt the following steps: • File > Open > Project/Solution • This will bring up the open project window, notice at the bottom where it says options, select add to solution • Then select the file you want to add and click open • This will then add the solution to your project. You still won't be able to run the same project in a single instance of VS, but you can have all your code organized in one place. NOTE: This worked for Visual Studio 2013 Professional.
