Property for CoreDropBuild target

How can I find the property for the path that <target> CoreDropBuild uses to copy my binaries to?

I want to write this property to a file so I my older automation can read it in and now the path to where our binaries are being copied to.

I tried to look forMicrosoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targetsbut the path toMSBuildExtensionsPath\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v8.0\TeamBuild\ didn't seem to apply to my machine.

Would the property I'm looking for have been in here? Where can I get a copy of this file and where can I get a list of the properties used in the build?

Thanks!

Binaries are copied into the location indicated by the DropLocation property. This is set in the TFSBuild.proj file by the user himself.

That's not really the case though.
The build is copied into that location and then in a folder with the version number. That is where it's really dropped.
How can I get the property for that?

But more than just the answer, how did you find the answer? I want to know how to find these things myself!

HURRAH!
I found the property! $(BuildNumber)!
Seems obvious enough.
I finally found C:\Program Files\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v8.0\TeamBuild\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targets
I kept thinking it was in the .net or the DevStudio directories.
I wish the docs would have just said, "This fill will probaby be here at c:\Program Files\MSBuild..." instead of putting the ever clear MSBuildExtensionsPath in front of the path.
