Running Assembly Linker from the Project

[brizeka]

I have program (.exe) running from within a .BLD file and it in turn attempts to launch AL.exe (Assembly Linker). The attempt to execute AL.exe fails with the System.IO.FileNotFoundException. I know running the .BLD file from a VS Tools - Command Prompt will work. Instead of having each developer go through that process I was hoping for a solution from within the Visual Build Pro tool.

I have tried to create macros for FrameworkDirectory and FrameworkVersion (with the environment checkbox), but the "external program" does not recognized them as Environment Variables.

Any ideas of how I can make this work?
