If it's anything like VB [2003], it's the other way around; adding
a file to a Project will normally copy that file into the Project directory.

On the "Add File" dialog, the Add button itself has a drop-down list
attached to it; one of the options thereupon is "Link" file - this is the
one you want; it adds the file to the Project, but /leaves/ it where it
was, i.e. in your /src directory.
