Hi

what you can do to get the variables of a previous build is the following,
in the build script, echo out all the needed parameters,
so you can get them back with xsl.
--> in nant <echo message=${CCNetLabel}"/>

so the integration properties of the build will be saved in the build log,



with kind regards
Ruben Willems
