Ah right, I mis-read your post and got the message that you wanted to use msbuild in ant/Nant scripts.

I imagine here: MSBuild Reference is a good start

Personally, I prefer to use ant and then call devenv.exe as an <exec> task rather than msbuild as msbuild doesn't support as many project types as devenv does.

I'm applying for a job that uses MS Build, not got an option of keeping with Ant or Nant
