Thanks for the link Duncan. I appreciate that.
Since my original post I have come up with an approach that I want to try. What I want to do is to write custom code which determines what the version number should be if a given component has to be rebuilt. I then want to modify the version information file to be this version but do so in a way that touchs the file back using it's orginal time stamp, i.e. pretend as if I did not make the change. I then do a dependency build. If the component builds then it gets the new version. If it does not then it keeps what ever version it has.
