I have a VS 2008 (2.0 framework) C# win forms application. There are
multiple projects that compile together to create a single "smart" client
application. In visual studio I can right-click the main project and say
"Publish" to create a ClickOnce for this application and all works fine.
However, I want to use TFS build to compile and if successful generate the
clickOnce files. How can I get TFS Team Build to build a clickOnce winform
app?

Aside from this being absolutely the wrong forum to ask questions about TFS,
TFSBuild, or MSBuild...
(unless you're specifically pursuing an MCTS certification on Team
Foundation Server),

Answering such a question is well beyond the scope of a simple newsgroup
thread.

My suggestion is to get two good books:
1. A good book on Team Foundation Server Administration.
2. A good book on MSBuild (aka TFSBuild)

You might also try looking at the walkthroughs in the MSDN/TFS
documentation -- I suspect there's an example or two there that can be
adapted or enhanced to achieve your objective.
