MSBuild Problem
-
I would like to compile my vb.net 2005 solution using MSBuild. I am running the command on the solution (.sln) file and it runs without errors, unfortunately it doesn't seem to be compiling the setup/deployment projects which are part of the solution, one is a merge module whilst the other is a windows deployment project. What can i do to make msbuild work for me? Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

MSBuild doesn't know how to build VS deployment projects. Upgrading to VS2008 won't help you either. The only option is to run VS through the command line with the appropriate switches. In your command prompt (assuming VS is in your path), run "devenv.exe /?" for the list of switches.
