Question Rebuild Selected and "Process Files"

General questions and thoughts:

If I understand correctly, it is not possible to select a step of type "process files" (and its child steps) and do a rebuild selected?

am I wrong?

And if this is true, then, if I had an action such as "Cleanup-Unregister all dlls in this folder" (using a process file step containing the unregister step)

then I wouldn't be able to just run this whenever I need to make sure the build machine is clean, or when I test portions of scripts or specific steps...

to me this would seem counter productive...

I guess if I want to run this type of actions, I either need to
a - use a run script : and have a custom script (or external script) to iterate and unregister using regsvr32
b - put the process files action in its own project? and call that... ?

it seems that just having the %procmask% macro was working much better (all in one step, rebuild selected is working, etc...)

of course I am not too familiar with build scripts and Visual Build Pro yet, so I may not see the obvious ...?

regards,
Julie
