yes, this behavior is by design. The VS2003's C# project needs all of its
source file in local directory(project directory). So if you add an
existing code files from another project/solution, the VS2003 IDE will copy
it to the current project's directory. I am afraid it doesn't work if you
modify the project file .csproj manually...


Thanks for your understanding!
