Body
In MSBuild 4.0+, there's <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms164309.aspx" rel="noreferrer">a <code>$(MSBuildProgramFiles32)</code> property</a> for it, which you can confidently employ directly (especially if you're prepared to put a <code>ToolsVersion="4.0"</code> at the top of the file to guarantee it's going to be available and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fail-fast" rel="noreferrer">Fail Fast</a> if it's not). If you're not and need something that can Do The Right Thing even when executed in an MSBuild 2.0 or later environment (i.e., back to VS 2005 environments), the complete solution is: <pre><code><PropertyGroup>  <ProgramFiles32>$(MSBuildProgramFiles32)</ProgramFiles32>  <ProgramFiles32 Condition=" '' == '$(ProgramFiles32)'">$(ProgramFiles%28x86%29)</ProgramFiles32>  <ProgramFiles32 Condition ="'$(ProgramFiles32)'=='' AND 'AMD64' == '$(PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE)'">$(ProgramFiles) (x86)</ProgramFiles32>  <ProgramFiles32 Condition=" '' == '$(ProgramFiles32)' ">$(ProgramFiles)</ProgramFiles32> </PropertyGroup> </code></pre> Unfortunately <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_enhancement" rel="noreferrer">Progressive enhancement</a> / <a href="http://remysharp.com/2010/10/08/what-is-a-polyfill/" rel="noreferrer">polyfill</a> overriding of the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms164309.aspx" rel="noreferrer">MSBuild reserved property</a> name <code>MSBuildProgramFiles32</code> via either a <code><PropertyGroup></code> or <code><CreateProperty></code> is rejected by MSBuild 4.0+ so it can't be made tidier and still support .NET 2.0.

1. COThe progressive enhancement gives me this error on MSBuild 4: `error MSB4004: The "MSBuildProgramFiles32" property is reserved, and cannot be modified.`

2. CO@Wernight Thanks for the catch - removed the progressive enhancement stuff. If your comment disappears, I'll eventually get around to deleting this!

Guidance

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.
