Build properties - finding the file during a JBE build

We have a build driven by the JBE. In the Build Definition, I have the build properties file set to .\buildProperties.out. We have a directory structure like this:

c:\<buildRoot>
c:\<buildRoot>\buildsystem --> JBE
c:\<buildRoot>\<productRoot> --> Our product extract/build directory

When I run the build, a buildProperties.out file is created in c:\<buildRoot> but the build (ant script) is looking for the buildProperties.out file in the c:\<buildRoot>\<productRoot> directory apparently, because if it is not there, I get a "file not found" error and if I copy it there, I have no problems.

Can you tell me how to set up the build definition to have the properties file in the right place?

I figured out that I can hardcode the path to the build properties and it works. So I can do that for now, but is there a way to do this with a relative path?
