Author Mixed-language in VS 2003?

Is it possible to write a single project using classes written in two
different languages (specifically C# and VB.Net)? For example, can I
include a class or module written in C# in a VB.Net project?
If so, where could I find documentation on how to do this?
Thank you
Jim Grant

Not that I'm aware of. The way I do this is to have a project for each
language and then add references from each to the other projects in the
solution. At that point you can do pretty much anything you need to, such as
extending a C# class using VB and so on. It works across all the languages
I've tried (VB, C#, C++, J#).

Ed,
Can you give a quick step-by-step list of how you do this. I think I might
need it here pretty soon.
