DLL cannot be copied to the run directory

[art a]

Hello folks,

I'm getting the following error when compiling my control library:

The file 'DDSControls.dll' cannot be copied to the run directory. The
process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

Could not copy temporary files to the output directory.

My interim solution is to exit VS.net and delete the .DLL files fromt he
/bin directory of my web application.
Is there an alternative solution to this?

Thanks!

Art
