What are references in context of the VS.NET projects?

A reference is the name and address of the .NET assembly or a COM component used inside some source files of the project. The Visual Studio.NET uses these added references when compiling your project assembly. A reference enables the language compiler to locate the referenced assemblies and COM component.
