Shapper,

what you need to do is compile common.vb to common.dll using the
command-line compiler (vbc.exe) and reference *that* in your VS.NET project.

vbc /t:library /out:common.dll common.vb

If you need to import .Net classes, include them in your command line:
vbc /t:library /r:system.dll /r:system.web.dll /out:common.dll common.vb

Once your assembly ( common.dll ) is compiled,
place it in the /bin directory of your application
and you will be able to call any of its functions.
