Help! I am running into an error when building a .NET project which states:

Illegal characters in path.

The path that I am setting it to is a vcproj project that as far as I can tell is valid. I can cut the project path out of the build step and paste it into explorer and the project opens fine. The project also successfully builds in VS .NET (2003).

Funny thing is if I replace the vcproj with the solution name the step executes fine....what am I missing?

Not sure. Please post

1) The .vcproj file
2) The .bld file that builds it
3) A log file showing the full step output for the failed step
4) The info from Help | About | Install Info in VBP

Thanks.

There was a bug in the Make VS.NET action when building an individual .vcproj file whose Output Directory contains $(ConfigurationName). This should fix it: http://www.kinook.com/Download/VisBuildDotNET.zip
