If I try to execute the vcbuild.exe I get an error the the VCProjectEngine.dll not can be loaded. Even if I run the exe in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\vcpackages> directory with the parameter to the vcproj file this error occurs.
does it help if you run "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\vcvarsall.bat" first, or use vcbuild in Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt which you can find in All programs->Microsoft visual studio 2005->visual studio tools

Posted: Visual C++ General, VCBLD0001: "VCProjectEngine.dll" Could not be loaded.
I got the same error, although I happen to be running a French VS2008, so it reads:
vcbuild.exe : erreur VCBLD0001 : VCProjectEngine.dll ne peut pas etre charge. Verifiez si VCProjectEngine.dll se trouve dans le meme repertoire que vcbuild.ex e.
In any case, running vcbuild.exe from the VS Command Prompt doesn't seem to help.
Since this is driving me nuts, I even ran vcbuild.exe under the de****, and I could see that it did, in fact, load VCProjectEngine.dll (the dll loaded message is shown in the de****'s log).
