dll version conflict

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi

when I build my solution (c#) I get errors like this:

Error: The dependency 'Alpha.Portal.Logging, Version=1.0.1944.20770,
Culture=neutral' in project 'Alpha.Documents.Verification.WindowsService'
cannot be copied to the run directory because it would conflict with
dependency 'Alpha.Portal.Logging, Version=1.0.1747.23851, Culture=neutral'.

Error: The dependency 'Alpha.Portal.Logging, Version=1.0.1747.23851,
Culture=neutral' in project Alpha.Documents.Verification.WindowsService'
cannot be copied to the run directory because it would conflict with
dependency 'Alpha.Portal.Logging, Version=1.0.1944.20770, Culture=neutral'.

Can someone explain what it means, and how I avoid it? Obviously there is
some sort of conflict in versions of 'Alpha.Portal.Logging'. And I have just
replaced the 'Alpha.Portal.Logging' dll with an updated version - but why
does Visual Studio not just use the new version, and claim there is a
conflict with the old version?

Thanks for any pointers,
Peter
