[dba-VB] Projects vs Solutions

I am hazy on how things are organized in .Net once you start building pieces of code.

What is a project, what is a solution and how are they tied together.

My role for the "DBFH" client involves lots of different tasks, for which there will be many 
different pieces.  I would hope to tie the pieces together in one big application.

For example I just wrote the little applet to cleanup CSV files, which will have to be used again. 
I do exports to Accuzip, imports from Accuzip, these two are closely related obviously.  I build 
orders.  I have to export data from tables for processing by external processing houses, which 
involves a very similar export / zip / FTP process.

So as I build these processes in C#, how are they physically organized on the disk, and how are they 
tied back together into one program.

 From what I am reading, a Solution is the big picture, a Project is a small part of the Solution. 
But when I open VS2008 there is no "create a solution" or at least I don't see one.  So how does one 
create a solution, and then look at just one project at a time inside of that solution?
