"Add as link" doesn't show up when you right click the project.  You
right-click the project, pick "Add -> Existing item".  A dialog box will
open where you can select the item to add and, the "Add" button in that
dialog box is a pulldown menu that includes "Add as link" and "Add".


yes, that what happens in a normal project (e.g. C#) However, the add button
in that dialog box doesn't have a pulldown in my wix project...

Can you, or anyone else for that matter, insert a link to another project,
as Justin described here:

There is no add as link option shown on my system when I right click the
project on my my system.  Add shows "New Item" "Existing Item" and
"Folder".
Am I looking in the wrong place?

So far, I've been using the Votive 3.0 build without any problems.  I
think the only thing "unstable" about the build is that there could be
breaking changes in future releases that mean you'll have to change your
code.  Other than the environment variable macros (being able to refer to
project output) not being in the 3.0 build, it seems to be much fuller
featured than 2.0.
