I am learning in the visual web developer c#, entity framework, and webservices.
I want to be able to run the entity framework for example with out building it a gui, or run a browser. So condole application with reference can do the job. Can I add a console application to my Visual Web developer solution?

Thanks

FWIW. In VWD 2010, you can create a library project, then go under project properties and change the project to Console application, and create a method "public static void Main(String[] args) {}", and it will build a console app for you.
