I've spent half today trying to figure this out to no avail. I have a
solution, using remoting, with 13 projects. The assemblies are using a
strong name key and things were working fine until today when I tried to
change the version number on some of the assemblies. I changed the intially
called assembly to be ver 1.0.0.2, from 1.0.0.0. NOw when I start the
application I receive the error "Cannot find the assembly ...
version=1.0.0.0" Where is it getting this reference to version 1.0.0.0?
I've changed all the assemblies to be version 1.0.0.2 but it's giving me this
error and I can't proceed. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Are you using 1.x or 2.0 CLR? One place to check would be application
manifests, they hold references to specific versions of assemblies. You
might also check that in your references, the versions are not pointing
to the 1.0.0.0 assemblies. .NET assemblies contain meta-data that
describes the assembly version an assembly was built against so that you
can have side by side deployment into the GAC. Don't know if any of this
is helpful.
