attrib -r or %(ATTRIB... on a VBP bld file

[kinook]

In v5 or v6, if you have 'Tools | User Options | Build | Save project before building' (this option could be on a different tab in v5, I don't recall) and you modify the project in the GUI and then initiate a build, it is by design that VBP will prompt about saving the file if it is read-only on disk.

The reason for this thread seemed to be regarding nightly builds, which implicitly are started in an automated fashion (i.e., no modifying of the .bld file interactively before starting the build), so I thought the question was in reference to that.
