    <p>Ive got CC.Net and NAnt (and MSBuild) running on a new VM-based build server (Win7-64 Pro). </p> <p>CC.Net can call MSBuild just fine - but I run into problems there when dealing with project-scope builds. The conditionals just dont have what I need. Not even close.</p> <p>So I decide to deal with those conditions by calling MSBuild with NAnt, which fails every time. When I run the nant script from the command prompt, I get this:</p> <pre><code>[loadtasks] Failure scanning "C:\nant\bin\extensions\common\2.0\Collection Gen.dll" for extensions. Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VSDesigner, Version=7.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. Buildfile: file:///c:/c7/projects/dyndata/dyndata.build Target framework: Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 Target(s) specified: build build: [loadtasks] Scanning directory "c:\nantcontrib\bin\lib" for extension assemblies .

Umpteen searches for nant/msbuild and this message have yielded nothing substantive.</p> <p>These items have been tried and failed to change the results:</p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2353404/nant-msbuild-task-with-net-4-0-rc">Nant msbuild task with .net 4.0 rc</a></p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/530262/net-projects-build-automation-with-nant-msbuild-svn">.NET projects build automation with NAnt/MSBuild + SVN</a> (tho I am using Vault)</p> <p>I tried to build the nant code so I could debug the problem via VS2010's debugger but the source project is an unworkable mess and wont even begin to build.</p> <p>Ideas are welcome:)</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
