Put a build step in to copy the msi to an archive location?

Yes, I include the version number on the output name in the project properties installer tab

I use the version number of my package on the msi name, but I do it manually on the visual studio properties sheet of my msi project. I do not know if there is a property or define that you could use for that... that would be a good feature.
The only property I use is the $(Configuration) on the output path in the Build tab.

Hello All,
I am renaming my msi after every build of my wix installer. But after every build my msi is overwritten. I have a requirement to keep the previous msi and the new msi as separate files. Is there any option in msbuild? or any other suggestion? Any help ?
Regards,Laique
