Command line compile with binary incompatibility

My product is relatively large. It includes 1 executable, 1 user control, and about 80 dll's.

I'm trying to make a utility program (that I can schedule) that will check out the code from source safe, compile all the projects, and then check everything bck in to source safe. So far, everything is going well, but I do have 1 problem that I can't seem to figure out.

For the dll's, I have binary compatibility checked. If I try to compile the project from vb's command line, I get an error:

[tt]There is a compatilibity error between the current project and the version-compatible component: 'Foo' in the 'Class1' class module has arguments and/or return type that is incompatible with a simnilar declaration in the version-compatible component.[/tt]

Now, I know that if I fire up VB and compile, I'll get a message about compatibility, but I can choose to break compatibility and continue compiling. My question is... Can I do this from the command line? I don't see any command line switches that allow it to continue.

I do not know.
Why not just change the dlls in question to "no compatibility" (project options) if your "goal" is anyways to ignore compatibility when compatibility is broken?
