Hi,
I don't know of a way of setting this via the IDE.
You can, however, bodge it:

(a)
Exit VS and rename folder manually.
Open the solution (.SLN) file with Notepad, find the project reference and change the path to the *.csproj file.

or
(b)
Create the project then remove it in VS. Exit VS, change the folder name then use 'Add Existing Project' to get it back.....

>When I add a project to a solution and name the project, say "MyCompany.DataAccess", Visual Studio 2005 creates a physical folder named MyCompany.DataAccess. The folder is created as a subfolder of my solution folder. I see no way to change the name of this folder. I would like the folder name to be something simpler, for example, DataAccess. But I see no options when creating/adding the project to set the folder name. I can specify where the project/folder will be placed (parent folder) but not the name of the folder itself. Strange though, as when I am reviewing a solution from a book I am reading, the author has a project named "HisCompany.DataAccess" but the folder name is DataAccess.
