solution file modified date never changes

Using VS.NET 2003 I have one asp.net application where the modified date
never changes. I have other solutions (asp.net/desktop) where the modified
date does change. This has been going on for several weeks - it claims it
wasn't modified for the past month which is certainly false.

Any ideas how to get VS.NET to update the last modified date of the
solution?

Thanks!

See if the date changes if you use the Build Solution command under the
Build menu.
 
Are you changing the hosting (main) solution at all, or just
files/sub-projects?

I've noticed the same behavior on my solutions. My thoughts were that the date
was updated when making actual changes to the main solution (i.e. adding new
sub projects).

I've found the start page to be pretty hokey --

Same here -- it's very annoying.

The project I work on every day is at the bottom of a long list, with a
project I made ages ago at the top.
 
Right! And no easy way to manage that mess either.

It can be done by fiddling w/ the MRU list in the registry or (temporarily)
moving/renaming the project (or folder), launching VS.NET (so that it no longer
finds the solution and removes it from the MRU list), and then
restoring/renaming the project.

Real mess. Would it be asking too much to right-click on the start-page link
and select "remove from list"???

Indeed. :)
