   ' This function creates a solution and adds a Visual Basic Console  
   ' project to it.   
   Dim soln As Solution  
   Dim proj As Project  
   Dim projitems As ProjectItems  

   ' Create a reference to the solution.

   ' Adjust the save path as needed.  
   proj = soln.AddFromTemplate("C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vb7\VBWizards\ConsoleApplication\Templates\1033\ConsoleApplication.vbproj", "c:\temp2", "My New Project", True)  
   projitems = proj.ProjectItems

End Sub  

Remarks

AddFolder adds a folder to the project and the ProjectItems collection and returns the newly created ProjectItem object. Its ProjectItems collection is empty. Some types of projects do not support adding certain kinds of folders (for example, vsProjectItemKindVirtualFolder).
