Compiler Fun

[Mike Labosh]

So I have setup a machine with just Windows Server 2003 and no Visual
Studio. Inside C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322 is vbc.exe that
I want to play with to educate myself and figure it out. I'm great at
VB.NET, but I wanted to try to write some code in notepad and manually
compile it in a cmd.exe window.

I can't seem to find good docs on the vbc.exe syntax. I have printed the
vbc /? screen, but I haven't been able to successfully compile anything as
yet. Can someone please point me at some example vbc.exe command lines?
