How to make vcxproj options vary based on Windows OS

T2102 asked:

I want to edit a vcxproj file and possibly some source code to take a different value when the OS is Windows XP versus Windows 7. For instance, I have code that I run under Excel 2003 in Windows XP and under Excel 2010 in Windows XP. I would like to change the Debugging entry to the associated Excel executable accordingly. Where would I find the relevant documentation to do this?
