Build Step just hangs?

Hi,

I have got a Run Program step that just executes a simple exe that opens a text file, makes a change to it and then saves and closes it.

I have watched the exe run and complete through windows processes. I have verified that the text file was updated.

The problem comes from Visual Build Pro. It doesn't seem to acknowledge that the exe has completed. It just sits on the step with a build status of building...

I have left the process for an hour and it still never acknowledged completion. I have put a timer in the exe to slow it down thinking that it was finishing before Visual Build Pro got started, so to speak. Still nothing.

It doesn't matter what I try to do to get it to work. Visual Build Pro. just hangs there waiting for something to complete that has already completed.

Any suggestions?

thx
