References not updating

I am referencing another dll from within a class library and it seems to
allways be looking for an older build version of the reference. I have tried
removing and re-adding the reference but to no avail. Originally I was
referencing the dll and so tried adding the project and referencing that but
still no luck. Any ideas? If I use reflector on the assembly it tells me
the reference is the correct version, but I get an excpetion when executing
that it can not find version x (the old version) Any ideas greatly
appreciated!

Many Thanks,

Paul

What's the exeptions details?

Are u sure that you didn't change the path (in the config )of the assemblies
probing, and your dll is on the right place?

Change if you have any old version of referenced assembly into GAC

I suspect you are using VS 2003... Change the assembly version in the
AssemblyInfo.vb file to be fixed (1.0.0.2, e.g.) instead of wild carded
sections (*'s).
