I think "by limitation" is a bit more accurate. <smile/> VC++ doesn't use standard project/build system and thus can't be referenced like everything else. Sad. True.

I am using Visual Studio 2005 for development. I just installed Wix-3.0.4318.0. When I tried to follow the help adding reference from .NET project, it works fine. Then I tried to add my real projects (using Win32) references. There is exclamation icon at new project reference in Solution pane. Also I cannot use project reference variables such as var.MyWin32Project.TargetFileName. Could someone help me?
