Question

I use visual studio 2008, and I would like to know if it is possible to run scheduled build on it.

Indeed, I have several projects I work on, and every time I change one, it may impact the other.

I would like to run, every night, a batch build on all my projects, so when I come in the morning I can see what compiled (and what did not compile as well).

Is there a way to schedule such a task in visual studio ?

EDIT:
I probably should have mentioned that I needed a light weight solution, so the TFS and other are a bit to complicated to put in place for me.
A simple scheduled task can do the trick.

Both @Rup and @Nawaz have the best solutions. If you’re looking for something really low-tech, though, you could consider simply creating a windows task that does a command-line build of your code on a nightly basis.
