As I understand things, devenv.com is intended to be the command line wrapper for devenv.exe. On some systems, devenv.exe behaves poorly if run directly from the command line (I've never repro'd these problems myself, so unfortunately I don't have further details). Originally we just used devenv by itself, but there were problems, and we fixed the bug by switching to use devenv.com explicitly. We seem to have not caught all the occurrences however. Anyways, that's the logic behind why things are the way they are. We'll probably also need to add cases to handle whatever naming conventions VCExpress has as well (if they're different). -Brad
