In order to force your Team Build to use the .NET assemblies and tools you'll need to make the following change. Change the value in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\tfsbuildservice.exe.config From add key="MSBuildPath" value="" to add key="MSBuildPath" value="C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319" TFS service must be restarted afterwards "Visual Studio Team Foundation Build" http://blogs.infosupport.com/blogs/martijnb/archive/2010/05/04/building-visual-studio-2010-solutions-using-team-build-2008.aspx

Like so many others I wanted to update the Version of all of my assemblies with one version value but I could not find the solution I wanted, hence I've written my own, see the source code below. This implementation fits my own problem, a build script which gets all our codebase sourcecode from SourceSafe, builds all the projects and then labels all the sourecode with a single label passed in by the builder at command-line. This implementation takes either 1 or 2 arguments. If only 1 is supplied it will do a check for a valid Version value i.e. the version must be of the format 1.0.0.0 and the third value must be less than 65535 (This is a .NET requirement, the assembly would not build if the number is above 65535, see here for more ). If 2 arguments are supplied it will do all that step 1 does and also will set the version to AssemblyVersion and AssemblyFileVersion in all AssemblyInfo.cs files under the directory specified (and it's subdirectories). e.g. here's how I cal...
