You cannot specify a custom build step for C# projects in Visual Studio .NET.
MORE INFORMATION
When you work in a C# project in Visual Studio .NET (VS .NET), and you open the Project Settings dialog box, the option to specify a custom build step does not appear. However, this option is available when you work in a C++ project.
To specify a custom build step in a C# project in VS .NET, add an empty C++ MakeFile project to the solution, and then add the custom build step to the C++ MakeFile project.
