Different versions of COM/.NET Bridges

Hi,

I'm using following bridge architecture to connect
native 32-bit applications with .NET

32-bit => COMServer.exe => .NET.dll => .NET Destination apps

The 32-bit client acts as COM client which calls the (ATL-build)
COMServer. This acts as host for the .NET.dll assembly, which exposes
an COM interface and includes proper co-classes. The only function
of this bridge is to redirect method calls from
32-bit to .NET (thats not all, 16-bit applications are also envolved,
but this makes no difference for my question below).

Everything works well, but I don't know how to run different versions
of this construction on one machine (versions like live and test-systems),
particulary how to configure the bridge to load different versions of
the destination assemblies. I can specify a path and make
use of Assembly-Load(), but i would prefer a config file. App.exe.config
shouldn't work because the DLL's are hosted by native COMServer.

Thanks for help, links etc. in advance

Peter
