I have some assemblies that reference other assemblies and I would like to be able to decompile them and debug from within Visual Studio. When I try and do that now, many of the classes end up only with IL. However, I can decompile successfully from within the actual Reflector application. When I do so it asks me for the location of some assemblies that the target assemblies reference. I assume this is why the decompilation from within Visual Studio is failing. Is there any way to get the decompilation to succeed from VS or to export the successful results from Reflector and use them from the plugin? Thanks.

The code for resolving assemblies inside Reflector Pro looks for a referenced assembly next to the assembly being processed and also searches the GAC. There isn't any way to add search directories to this resolution though I'll log that as an enhancement.
Currently, I think the only work around is to copy the required assemblies, either manually or by setting a reference to them and setting "copy local" to get Visual Studio to do the copy for you.
