It could be done, but isn't going to be done for Fb1. The current build
process, based on batch files, but using Bor Make, is the best you are going
to get. When you do a debug build it even generates the source browser
database. If you then follow Dmitry's suggestion you will have no trouble
stepping through the code.

The whole build process has been completely reviewed for Fb2 and will use
dsw/dsp files for the Win32 platform.

There is nothing to stop you porting the Fb1 make files over to MSVC projects.
But considering the lifetime left of the Fb1 project now, it is not really
worth the effort.
