It's actually an assembly I'm using with an inherited
System.Configuration.Install.Installer class and overriding
the Install(...)
method.
I'm wondering if I could load a new instance of the same
assembly in another
portion of the AppDomain and then that instance would use
the new file.
At this point I'm up for trying anything.
Thanks,
Mike
