    I could have sworn that one time while I was using VS 2005, I came across a menu item that allowed me to open a project's folder in Explorer. Was I just imagining this? Bernie (Boom Boom) Geoffrion worked Atlanta Flames games in the 1970s with the splendid Jiggs McDonald. One night, Geoffrion said, "Jiggs, there are only three things to hockey: shooting and skating." McDonald said, "Right, Boomer. And what's the third?" The exasperated Geoffrion replied," Jiggs, that's the three. Shooting. And. Skating."

      you can try following macro:

      Public Sub ExploreProjectFolder()
      Dim proj As Project = DTE.ActiveDocument.ProjectItem.ContainingProject
      Dim path As String = proj.Properties.Item("FullPath").Value
      Dim proc As New System.Diagnostics.Process
      proc.Start("explorer.exe", path)
      End Sub

      i didn't do any thorough testing, so be warned...
