Yes, we have had this problem presented to us before. Hopefully with =20
the next release of ASL we will have this batch file updated so users =20=

can have one (or both) IDEs installed.

Yes, if you can nail this down please file it as a bug report on the =20
sourceforge.net page.

We have the vcproj files hand-made at this point due to the fact that =20=

we make heavy use of vsprops files to put our settings external to =20
