C# comes with a refactoring tool built in, but for VB.NET instead of building it in, Microsoft just provides a link to a free add-in for VS 2005 & VS 2008 users by DevExpress. You can download it here:

I find it very handy especially Extract Method, Rename local, and Introduce Constant.

Oh and CreateOverload is very nice also.

While at Tech-Ed 2008 in Orlando I picked up a copy of "Professional Refactoring in Visual Basic" by Danijel Arsenovski a Wrox Programmer to Programmer book by Wiley Publishing, Inc. This book is absolutely the best book I have seen on doing object oriented VB.NET programming in the real world. In my opinion it is absolutely required reading for anyone coding in VB.NET.

If you have an EnvDTE.Project reference to an existing Solution Folder you can add a solution folder like so:
C#
((EnvDTE80.SolutionFolder)root.Object).AddSolutionFolder("solutionFolder");
or VB
DirectCast(root.[Object], EnvDTE80.SolutionFolder).AddSolutionFolder("solutionFolder")
where "root" is the EnvDTE.Project reference to the existing Solution Folder.
