I have a somewhat more complicated version of this question.
I am using a seperate build system linked into VS 2005 with makefile projects. I can see in my dump of the project file that I can specify seperate buiuld/rebuild/clean commands for each file, so presumably I should be able to compile each file by passing the name of the object target into my build system.
But the Build|Compile option seems to be always disabled. Do I have to write my own compile addin menu item to get this to work

The puzzle for users of the Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition IDE who are accustomed to older versions of VC++ and even other-people's older versions of IDEs, is that the Build | Compile menu item is present only when a compilable source file is selected in the project.
So, if there is no Build | Compile selection in the IDE, make sure you have a project open and the source program that you want to compile is selected.
Since compiling doesn't do much, it may be easier to always use Build | Build Solution (F7). This seems to always do the right thing, and it doesn't recompile anything that it doesn't have to.
