Title Body

My solution has two projects. One is my actual project and another one is setup project. My actual project has one report folder where I store my all ssrs report.

I got a sample like copy /Y "$(TargetDir)$(ProjectName).dll" "$(SolutionDir)lib\$(ProjectName).dll" The above statement or line is not clear to me. What do I need to write in my case? I need
