Don't specify basedir in the sub-project build.xml and invoke it via <ant/> from a build.xml in the c:\MyProject directory (with basedir "."): the sub-project will inherit the main project's basedir (i.e. c:\MyProject). Alternatively, access your source directory via ../src (which seems a bit duff, but workable). Finally, look at the <ant/> and <subant/> tasks' documentation.
