I'm trying to create a post build step macro for VB.NET project, and I'm having a tough time locating the full name of the project binary (eg- c:\project\bin\debug\widget.dll") via the EnvDTE object. I'm able to get the full name of the project file but not the actual output.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Kris

You can look up the project property called OutputFileName.

fvslangprojprojectpropertiesoutputfilename.asp
