Assuming that the solution compiles successfully in VS.NET 2003, then you should make sure that your environment variables are set correctly. Read vsvars32.bat to see what needs to be set. I've found it very difficult to set environment variables within Nant so you will likely need to set them through explorer. There are three environment variables you will want to make sure are correct and those are LIB, INCLUDE, and PATH. The other environment variables in vsvars32.bat are there to create those three.
