This project is out of date

[gib]

Why does it sometimes happen that VS2005 thinks a project is out of date, even when it's just been rebuilt? Normally when the build button is clicked when there have been no changes since the last build the compiler gives the "up-to-date" message, but sometimes something goes wrong. Right now I'm working on a very simple project with a single file, and VS constantly thinks the project needs rebuilding. It is an annoyance when I click the "Start without debugging" to have to rebuild again before running.

Do you have any resources in the project?I have found that sometimes resource files get updated during the build, which immediately flags the project as being out of date.

Not knowingly, let me check ...
No, there's nothing under the "Resource Files" tag in the project directory.
I'm having the same problem with all the sample projects that I copied from their installed locations in the Array Visualizer tree.
