Jean, I found the same area, and I figure the problem is in there. However, the version that I am looking at has the OptionElement code commented out. I have a feeling that this is where the problem is, as the suggested format looks like an OptionElement to me. Unfortunately, the nantcontrib list seems to be rather dead, so I don't know if we'll get any movement on this. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/nantcontrib/NAntContrib/s rc/Tasks/SlingshotTask.cs?rev=1.4 <http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/nantcontrib/NAntContrib/ src/Tasks/SlingshotTask.cs?rev=1.4&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup> &content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup Erick
