Nick use property for substituting an individual entity such as. <property name="idl.src" value="directory"/> <midl  tlb="${idl.src}\TempAtl.tlb"... -OR- use fileset instead of property for specifying all the files for a fileset take a look at http://nant.sourceforge.net/help/types/fileset.html HTH, Martin ----- Original Message ----- From: Nick Zigomanis To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 15, 2004 8:33 PM Subject: [Nant-users] Having a problem with the midl task I’m having a problem getting the midl task to work. Within my build file, I have something that looks like:     <property name="idl.src" value="file.IDL" /> <property name="idl.out" value="file.tlb" />   <midl env="win32" filename="${idl.src}" tlb="${idl.out}">       <options>             <option name="/mktyplib203"/>       </options> </midl>     When it’s run, I get an error like:   midl : command line warning MIDL1009 : unknown argument ignored "file.IDL" midl : command line error MIDL1001 : cannot open input file option   BUILD FAILED   Am I using this in the right way?   Regards, Nick.
