VS2012 Add Reference is Grayed Out

Just installed VS2012 Premium (not express, but the full product). I'm totally new to it and to web programming.

I'm following the tutorial in ASP.NET and when I get here it tells me to

"right-click References and select Add Reference from the right-click menu"

However, the "Add Reference" menu item is grayed out.

How do I get out of this?

Check a couple of things

  1. Do you have the project selected?
  2. Are you in debug mode?

I would ensure you are not in debug. And try not having the projected selected but the folder called references.
