    Hi I have a large project which refers to a number of dll's. These dll's are in small projects which I often go back to and change from Debug to Release and then rebuild them. The main project is also often switched from Debug to Release. What I'm now finding is that if I press F5 from the IDE (either in Debug or Release), even though the Output window says its building the project, any changes I've made to the main project are not reflected in this build. However, if I select from the menu, Build and then press F5 the new build is fine. I've tried deleting all *.dll;*.exe;*.pdb but this seems to help for a couple of hours, and then it goes back to its old behaviour. Has anyone else experienced this ? TIA Jeremy

      Does the same problem occur if you Build >> Rebuild Solution instead of just using F5? This seemed to solve our issue. Cheers, Simon sig ::

        Simon Yes it still happens with Rebuild Solution - note its one of these intermittent problems, sometimes happens sometimes doesn't. I've just got into the habit of doing a build before a run - but its still very irritating. Regards Jeremy
