Public Module Module1  
    Sub Test()  
        Dim prj As VCProject  
        Dim vcar As VCAssemblyReference  
        Dim refcfg As VCReferenceConfiguration  

        prj = DTE.Solution.Projects.Item(1).Object  
        If prj.CanAddAssemblyReference("C:\Program Files\ _  
        Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\ _  
        PublicAssemblies\envdte.dll") Then  
           vcar = prj.AddAssemblyReference("C:\Program Files\ _  
           Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\ _  
           PublicAssemblies\envdte.dll")  
        End If  
        refcfg = vcar.ReferenceConfigurations.Item(1)  
        MsgBox("Consumable? " & refcfg.ConsumableByDesigner)  
    End Sub  
End Module

Remarks

AddAssemblyReference calls the VSCore service in Visual Studio to identify the MinFrameworkVersion for the added reference. If you call AddAssemblyReference outside of Visual Studio where the VSCore service is not available, then the MinFrameworkVersion is set to eFrameworkVersionUnknown.
