1) Global macros: Any changes to VBP global macros (add, modify, or delete) in the chained (child) project will also apply to the master (parent) project instance. Global macros can be modified via a Set Macro (http://www.kinook.com/VisBuildPro/Manual/setmacroaction.htm) action or in a Run Script (http://www.kinook.com/VisBuildPro/Manual/runscript.htm) action.

2) INI file: Use a Write INI (http://www.kinook.com/VisBuildPro/Manual/writeiniaction.htm) action in the chained build to write values to an INI file, then use the Read INI (http://www.kinook.com/VisBuildPro/Manual/readini.htm) action to read the value in the master build project.

3) XML file: Use a Write XML (http://www.kinook.com/VisBuildPro/Manual/writexmlaction.htm) action in the chained build to write the value to an INI file, then use the Read XML (http://www.kinook.com/VisBuildPro/Manual/readxml.htm) action to read the value in the master build project.

4) Registry: Use a Write Registry (http://www.kinook.com/VisBuildPro/Manual/writeregistry.htm) action in the chained build to write the value to the registry, then use the Read Registry (http://www.kinook.com/VisBuildPro/Manual/readregistry.htm) action to read the value in the master build project.
