Hello, i have some Visual Studio 6.0 projekts (.dsw etc) and i compile them from a master batch. (my compiles are done overnight in batch mode). as follows: msdev PL2_DB_VCSAMPLE.DSW /MAKE "PL2_DB_VCSample - Win32 Unicode Debug" /REBUILD /USEENV /OUT PL2_DB_VCSAMPLE.err now i start working with Visual Studio 2008 Express. When i double click on the .dsw file VS2008 starts and will convert the projekt to a VS2008 solution/projekt. but now what? how can i compile the sources from the batch? i tried vcexpress /? but there are just a few options for debugging (which works fine this way), but nearly none of the old msdev options are available. S:\SU\PL2_DB_VCSAMPLE>msdev /? Usage: MSDEV [myprj.dsp|mywksp.dsw] - load project/workspace [<filename>] - load source file /? - display usage information /EX <macroname> - execute a VBScript macro /OUT <filename> - redirect command line output to a file /USEENV - ignore tools.options.directories settings /MAKE [<target>] [...] - build specified target(s) [<project> - <platform> <configname>] [[<project>|ALL] - [DEBUG|RELEASE|ALL]] /CLEAN - delete intermediate files but don't build /REBUILD - clean and build /NORECURSE - don't build dependent projects any ideas what i can dò? thx for any help! mario.

Things are a little different now. First build the project using the GUI first. Make it compile correctly inside VS2008. Then you only need do: @ECHO OFF REM Set which version of Visual Studio you are using. The path to includes and bin etc.. call %VS90COMNTOOLS%vsvars32.bat REM Run rc.exe as VCExpress will not do rc scripts REM rc.exe test.rc REM Visual Studio 2002 and newer can process the sln file REM Replace 'VCExpress' with 'devenv' for pro versions VCExpress.exe MyProject.sln /build Release
