VB - "Available References" problem

[SpaceMarine]

hello,

i am trying to figure something out. the facts:

- i have an Access 2000 app that ive converted to Access 2007 (windows
Vista)

- it uses several external references, DLLs and an EXE.

- these are managed in the VB IDE's Tools-->References... dialog.

- one of the available references is an .EXE that belongs to my team,
its location is in "C:\Users\foo\bar\someFile.exe".

- i now need to update this reference to point elsewhere.

....however, whenever i use the "Browse..." button to point to the new
location (same file name), it ignores the change, and the available-
reference remains pointing to the old location.

how does the Access VB IDE populate this list? is there a way i can
permanently remove the old available-reference from it? then maybe
"Browse..." will successfully pickup my new path.


thoughts? thanks!

permanently remove the old available-reference from it?

i was able to do this by unregistering the EXE in question. from the
command console:

C:\Users\foo\bar\someFile.exe" /unregserver

....gone from list. new one could then be added properly.
