You'll need to use the client-server interface to Vim.
:he client-server
It's easy to set up a shortcut in your Windows "Send To" context menu,
so that you can then send items to a specific Vim instance, using the
client-server commandline arguments inside the shortcut. Then sending
files to the Vim inside Visual Studio is just a right-click away.

The "launch files in tabs" link on that page accomplishes its task
using the client-server interface if you need an example.
