I am trying to use powershell within the Package Manager Console to script the removal of a project from a solution and I am having a surprisingly hard time. I can easily add a project by <pre><code>PM> $dte.Solution.AddFromFile("C:\Dev\Project1.csproj")</code></pre> Now I want to be remove a project and can't get anything to work. I have tried a number of things including: <pre><code>PM> $project1 = Get-Project "Project1Name" PM> $dte.Solution.Remove($project1)</code>> Cannot convert argument "0", with value: "System.__ComObject", for "Remove" to type "EnvDTE.Project": "Cannot convert the "System.__ComObject" value of type "System.__ComObject#{866311e6-c887-4143-9833-645f5b93f6f1}" to type "EnvDTE.Project"."</pre> <pre><code>PM> $project = Get-Interface $project1 ([EnvDTE.Project]) PM> $dte.Solution.Remove($project) Cannot convert argument "0", with value: "System.__ComObject", for "Remove" to type "EnvDTE.Project": "Cannot convert the "System.__ComObject" value of type "NuGetConsole.Host.PowerShell.Implementation.PSTypeWrapper" to type "EnvDTE.Project"."</code></pre> <pre><code>PM> $project = [EnvDTE.Project] ($project1) Cannot convert the "System.__ComObject" value of type "System.__ComObject#{866311e6-c887-4143-9833-645f5b93f6f1}" to type "EnvDTE.Project".</code></pre> <pre><code>PM> $solution2 = Get-Interface $dte.Solution ([EnvDTE80.Solution2]) PM> $solution2.Remove($project1) Exception calling "Remove" with "1" argument(s): "Exception calling "InvokeMethod" with "3" argument(s): "Object must implement IConvertible.""</code></pre> <pre><code>PM> $dte2 = Get-Interface $dte ([EnvDTE80.DTE2]) PM> $dte2.Solution.Remove($project) Method invocation failed because [System.Object[]] doesn't contain a method named 'Remove'.</code></pre> I have tried other combinations, but I am clearly spinning my wheels. I appreciate any suggestions.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
