Add the dll to your project, then in visual studio
View Menu -> Object Browser
You would be able to see the publicly exposed methods and properties
Also you can open .net dll in the tool .Net Reflector, its very powerful tool and may let you see the code if its not obsfucated

You can add them in Visual Studio as discussed in other answers but if you want to see the code and don't have a .pdb then you can use ILSpy (replacement for .NET Reflector)
