Thanks for the reply. 
I guess you misunderstood my question - I am using VC2008 and .Net
Framework 3.5, but when I build I got error message about missing
VCProjectEngine and suggest to install VC2005 and .Net Framework 2.0.

***********************
Here is message:

C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WiX\v3.0\Wix.targets(0,0):
warning MSB3421: Could not load the Visual C++ component
"Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine, Version=8.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a". 

To fix this, 1) install the .NET Framework 2.0 SDK or 
                 2) install Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. 

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine,
Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or
one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

***************************
Here is my original email:

I got this warning when build the Wix project which was created by using
Visual Studio 2008 and .Net Framework 3.5. It is looking for
VCProjectEngine and Visual Studio 2005.

C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WiX\v3.0\Wix.targets(0,0):

install the .NET Framework 2.0 SDK or 2) install Microsoft Visual Studio

As I mentioned, the Wix project is created in VS2008, and my Framework
version is 3.5. Does anyone know where is wrong for getting this
warning? 

By the way, I am using Wix 3.0.4513.

Are you trying to refer to project variables from a VS2008 .vcproj? If 
so, that's not supported (yet); doing so creates a dependency on .NET 
3.5, which we don't otherwise require.

I'd suggest trying this with the latest weekly build from 
http://wix.sourceforge.net/releases/.
