Hi,

In "Tools - Options - Compilers" we can specify path/location to where Visual Studio is installed.

Is this path available as variable?

Regards, Kim

Hi Kim,   
  
 You can get the value of the option property by using the following script:   
  
 var optionsObj = GetOptionsObject(“Visual [Studio.Net](http://Studio.Net)”);   
 YOUR\_FB\_VARIABLE = optionsObj.DevEnv2008Location;   
  
 Regards,   
 Paul.
