How to find all references in a solution (thus of all projects)?

We have a big solution with a lot of proj开发者_运维百科ects in it. Some projects reference the same DLL's and I need to replace one DLL. Is there a way to see which references are in the entire solution so I don't have to go over each project one by one?

I want to see the solution-wide references, not per-project. Is it possible?

Just to expand a little further on Juozas answer, you can use most modern Text editors to find/replace. For example in Notepad++ use Find-in-Files (Ctrl-Shift-F)

Notice I left the end quote off the search as sometimes the Reference will include additional info, eg

Reference Include="System.Web.Mvc, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=

Leaving off the end double quote may then give you false positive (as in my example it includes refs to System.Data and System.Data.DataSetExtensions

You can try textual replace in .XXproj files to change the reference.

Visual Studio by itself doens´t provide any functionality to display or visualize project (assembly) references and dependencies.

For this i would recommened you to use NDepend. It provides a Trial mode and it can analyze your assemblies and display the assembly dependencies.
