Problem with Window installer in Visual Studio 2008

I am trying to use Visual Studio 2008 to create a project of Setup type.  I am in the process of create a installation for my application.

Once I install it, it does not allow me to install again and ask me to remove the older version first.  Is that a way to do configure the setup project so it will always override the old version.

In the setup project you can set the property RemovePreviousVersions = True

I have set the property RemovePreviousVersions = True for the project, it still does not make a difference

In this case, the version of application is the same, but may have recompile
The problem is you need to upgrade the version number.  Thanks for All your help.
I mean the Version Property in the Project Properties list for the setup project
Ok, that was the problem! :)
