I'm trying to standardise on a common output pathing for our various apps and for the output directories I have something like this:     $(DEV_BUILD_DIR)\$(MSBuildProjectName)_$(Platform)_$(Config)   To create        C:\dev_build\MyApp_Win32_Debug\   This works fine for the intermediate files etc.  If I use the above for the Final Ouput directory, the exe (+others) are placed in the directory, but an F9 results in an error saying unable to locate the executable.  It looks like the IDE has no knowledge of $(MSBuildProjectName).   Aside from envrionment variables, is there a list available of other params to be used in the project directory fields, specifically the project name?   Thanks.
