Hello, I am using TFS 2008 and writing my builds using the built-in TeamBuild.

We are using .NET 3.5 with VS2008. I have a solution with ~20 projects in it, and that number will grow over time as the application grows and adds new modules.

Not going into detail on why I want to do this, I need to execute a macro inside Visual Studio as part of our msbuild script. The macro performs some actions in the IDE and then calls Application.Quit() to close the IDE.
