Renaming C++ executables in .NET

I am new to .NET and have this task to research. We are currently
building an applicacion with C++ and C code under Visual Studio .NET
2003. We are interested in naming the executables created with a
different name than the project (.vcproj) it gets generated from.

For example, given project

compile_vxmlgram.vcproj

we'd like to generate an executable from it called:

vxmlgram_compiler.exe

Can this be done and, if so, what are the options to do the namespace
renaming? Can this be specified in the .vcproj fiel itself? Any tips
in this regard will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

From the IDE's menu:

Project->Properties->Linker->Output File
