      // solution to run this code.  
      BuildDependencies bldDepends;  
      BuildDependency bldDependency = null;  

      bldDepends = dte.Solution.SolutionBuild.BuildDependencies;  
      if (bldDepends.Count > 0)  
         bldDependency = bldDepends.Item(bldDepends.Count);  

      //   
      if (bldDependency.Collection.Count > 0)  
         MessageBox.Show(bldDependency.DTE.Name);
