The main Visual Build Pro screen contains a menu bar, several toolbars, an actions pane for inserting new steps, several step panes, a macros pane, and an output pane, all of which can be customized in various ways.  To get started, check out the samples included with Visual Build Pro, and then add the steps, macros, and script that make up your project.  You can easily debug the project step by step as you construct it.

 

 

Visual Build Pro projects are stored in files with a .bld extension.  The project files are stored in XML format, which can be stored as text in a source control system.  By default, Visual Build Professional opens the most recently used project at startup, although this can be disabled via a user option or by holding Shift down when starting.  Visual Build Pro is an SDI app (only one file can be open at a time), but multiple instances of Visual Build Pro can be started.
