antcall documentation confusion

In reading over the documentation of the antcall task, it seems to make sense but I wonder at some of the terminology used. AntCall Description Call another target within the same build-file optionally specifying some properties (param's in this context) By default, all of the properties

This is more of a VSS question than an ant question. Nevertheless, which version of VSS are you using? The problem is that if you create two labels separately, even if they have the same name, they won't be the same label item. Your best bet is to use a previous build and alter the files
