vb 2005 express cannot compile release

In my project properties i can select the release configuration, it shows the
proper path to bin\Release. etc....

Upon compiling it comes up in the bin\Debug folder in a debug .exe

"PROJ\bin\Debug\ATV Toolkit.exe"
"Build: 1 succeeded or up-to-date, 0 failed, 0 skipped"

from the output window.

What is my malfunction ?

Thanx,
Newbie...

Did you use the F5 instead of the Build commands

Cor,

Thank You,

I Knew it was something mistaken, possibly. It worked via the build drop
down menu BUT not not using the build button. Unfortunately i have another
question(s) relating why this may be.

1. So I can set the build configuration via the project properties.
2. ? If I build it via "Build" menu drop down, I can set it as "release"
or "debug" ( in properties ) it will go to the Release bin. (no matter the
path in properties) - or-
? Does the project properties define the compile, and the build define where
it goes to?

It seems this may a bug,,,,,,,,,, where in project properties I select
release, the path is shown. If I compile should it not follow the specs?

<! insert guy with rolling eyes here /!>

I.E. The optional menu set providing "build" button [ menu/ view/ toolbars/
build--- checked] does not do the same as [menu/ build/ build(My.Project) ]

I think I donot understand. Is compiling different than build? Just not
logical, if i may say so being a newbie.

Soo confused... At least the build works somehow. ( Donot want to start
again :-( )

Regards,
Tnx for the response,

Roman

FOUND IT !!! [Menu\ Build \ Config Manager] Why doesn't this follow project
properties?

Can it do this?

1. A debug build in a release config
2. A debug build in a debug config
3. A release build in a debug config
4. A release build in a release config
all above = ?

What separates the config of the build?

still confused... but the project is goin good in a active debug cfg :-)
