Well folks I have been banging my head against the wall for a whole day and
have not been able to solve this very strange problem ...
I have a need to compile an update to an old version of CatBase. This is
Version 7.3 (we are currently on Version 8). The previous compile was rev.
93; this one is rev. 100.

So I compile  and build a single-user app.
Run it and check to make sure it is the correct version (r100). It is.
Build an installer using InnoSetup.
Check that the installer is the correct one (ie - current date and time).
Run the installer.
Check the installed version: the files (including the .exe) have the
current date and time.
Run the app.
IT RUNS THE WRONG VERSION (rev 93 instead of rev 100)!

I have:
Scoured the machine and deleted ALL previous versions of the app.
Found and deleted out-of-date shortcuts.
Deleted an old version of the installer from the Downloads folder.
Emptied the Recycle bin.
Restarted the machine.
Checked the installer script to make sure it is pointing to the correct
folder. Checked this by removing the compiled app folder; running the
installer script generates an error. Put the folder back and the installer
script runs OK. This confirms that the script is pointing to the correct
folder.
Delete the installer and empty the Recycle Bin
Rebuild the installer.
Same problem every time!

No matter what I do, the newly installed .exe runs the old version, which
doesn't even exist anywhere!

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Pat
