[comp.windows.ms] Orphaned Response

Your problem sounds like one that I used to have.  Simply make sure that any 
currently running copies of the program under development are terminated before
recompiling.  Windows programs often look back to the executable file on disk,
and if you change that file it gets confused.  (Understandably so..)

So just kill off any executing old versions before creating new versions.
  (Or run tests off of a copy of the executable file created by the compiler,
one that is not changed automatically after a recompile.)
