I have an involved VC++ 6.0 workspace that has over 20 projects in it. I have created a build.dsp that has dependencies on the other projects. It will also build them in a specified order which is necessary. When I call the build.dsp from Visual Build, it does not build any of the dependencies, but does complete successfully. If I open the project up in VC++ and do a build on the build.dsp project it starts building all the dependencies. Is this a bug, limitation, or am I doing something wrong.

Thanks

Tom

Dependencies are stored the workspace (.dsw) file, not the project (.dsp) file. Specify the .dsw file to the Make VC6 step in order for all projects and dependencies in the workspace to be processed.
