Using a macro OnBuild to copy files to \Bin directory

[Matthew]

I need to develop a macro that upon building a project in VB.NET will
copy a configuration file from the project directory to the \Bin
directory. Based upon the active build configuration, the macro will
determine the correct configuration file to copy and the correct \Bin
directory to copy it to. Has anyone else done anything like this?

Thanks.

Isn't that done automatically for 'App.config' in VS.NET 2003? Or are
you using custom configuration files?

Yes, this is based on using different config files based on the build
configuration selected.
