When I create the .sln file with runprebuild2008.bat and then open the .sln in VC# 2008 Express, I get the following error:

Solution folders are not supported in this version of the application. Solution folder 'Solution Files' will be displayed as unavailable.

When I click OK, I then see the following warning repeated 5 times:
The custom tool 'ResXFileCodeGenerator' failed while processing the file 'Properties\Resources.resx'.

Once I'm past this, it does seem to compile OK, but the errors are a bit disconcerting. It's not going to encourage new developers very much when they follow the instructions and get hit with an error message first thing.

Make sure you run 'runprebuild2008.bat' to generate the vs2008/2008 express solution files.

Sorry, i mistyped above. I did in fact run runprebuild2008.bat.

its our fun and wonderful prebuild system we've been hacking to death to make it work, those errors are non-fatal and everything will compile and work as expected. For those to go away further hacking on the prebuild system needs to occur.

Well, what's a "Solution folder" and how can we make the prebuild system not use one when creating the .sln?

I am getting the same result but have found more errors along the way. During prebuild I see this in the echoed text.
