SmokeALot:
Hello,

is there any possibility to add Visual Studio style-solution folders to an existing solution in code blocks?

Here is what I want to achieve:

Yes. Solutions in MS are (if you like) Workspaces in C::B. A workspace can contain 1..n projects which itself can contain 1..n targets. Notice that a target may be used in different styles. Either (for example) to separate release from a debug code, but also to be a DLL / shared library / executable... whatever you like.

Actually I was refering to 'virtual' folders in a c::b workspace, in which I can add stand-alone files or c::b projects.
The point is, I have a lot of different projects (such as client/server/masterserver etc.) in my current workspace and such virtual folders would help me a lot to well arrange them.

That what I mean in VS2008:

Yes, C::B supports that. Just right-click on the project and inspect the menu... ;-)

Probably my own stupidity, but I still do not get it. As seen in the picture I posted above, I want to create a virtual folder (as a direct child of the workspace, not a project), whose children are projects. I do know that there are virtual folders in projects, but I need the same functionality in a workspace.

On right-clicking on Workspace, I only get these options:

Rename workspaces...
---------------------
Save workspace
Save workspace as...
---------------------
Find File...
---------------------
Close workspace
