    Unable to get F# Web Tools to build in VS 2008

    Summary: Regarding http://www.codeplex.com/fswebtools

    I was able to download, and to get it working from command line after some issues, but have not successfully got VS 2008 working with it.

    Details:
    At first, I was unable to rebuild WebTools.Core because resgen.exe was not on my path. Added Windows SDK directory to my path, then I was able to use the build.bat files successfully from command line.

    However, when I double-click solution to load into VS 2008, there are still problems: 15 Errors, starting with complaint "Unable to find file Metascripting.Core.dll", on the very first line (#light) of every file. The "open FSharp.WebTools" lines also complain that FSharp is undefined.

    Something about this F# project is not set up right on my PC? I have not seen these problems before with F#.

    NOTE: I do use "#light" regularly elsewhere, so it isn't that. "metascripting" is also mentioned when right-click project / Properties. DLL references shows:
    -r "..\MetaScripting.ClientLibrary\bin\Debug\metascripting.clientlibrary.dll ...

    Is "Metascripting" a download from somewhere?
