The VBP automation objects wrap the underlying object model and not the GUI. The only way to get a GUI automatically is to explicitly launch the GUI app via the command-line:

You could use the Builder.RunProgramEx method to do that from script:
http://www.visualbuild.com/Manual/ru...amexmethod.htm
Code:
If Application.Context = vbldContextGUI Then
exe = %VISBUILD%
Else
exe = %VISBUILDCMD%
End If
Step.BuildStatus = Builder.RunProgramEx(exe & " /b ""%VISBUILDDIR%\Samples\RegEdit.bld""")
