adding reference X to Project Y several times?

[Aaron Irizarry]

If I add reference X (a C# dot net DLL) to my Project Y and then change the
reference and rebuild (added new methods), do I need to delete the "old"
reference and add it again with the recompiled dll? Or is there some way
that the project can update its own references automatically?

Thanks.

Aaron,

You should only have to set the reference once, and then if there is a
new version, the build mechanism should pick up on it and use the correct
version in the build (assuming the assembly is in the same place).

Hope this helps.
