Is it possible to modify a ItemGroup's metadata after it is declared.

For Example:

  <ItemGroup>
    <SolutionToBuild Include="$(BuildProjectFolderPath)\MySolution.sln">
      <Targets></Targets>
      <Properties></Properties>
    </SolutionToBuild>

  </ItemGroup>

  <Target Name="BuildNumberOverrideTarget">
     <!--Code to get the version number from a file (removed)-->

     <!--Begin Pseudo Code-->
     <CodeToChangeItemGroupMetaData 
           ItemToChange="%(SolutionToBuild.Properties)" 
           Condition ="'%(SolutionToBuild.Identity)' ==
                       '$(BuildProjectFolderPath)\MySolution.sln'"
           NewValue="Version=$(Version)" />
     <!--End Pseudo Code-->         

  </Target>

I am hoping there is a way that does not require me to remove the item then re-declare it.

Thanks for any answers. Vaccano
