Copying website not copying in visual studio 2010
I have a website and I am using the Copy Website option to copy it to multiple servers.
On the left, I have a file with a date older than the one on the right. And another file with a date newer than the one on the right.
But the one on the right shows an arrow pointing left like I need to copy it to the left, even though the first file on the left is identical to the one on the right -- it's just that the first time it was copied it kept the date of the copy date instead of the file creation date. And the second file on the left is newer than the one on the right, but the one on the right shows an arrow to the left that it should be copied.
If I did what it says I'd be wiping out my coding changes!
Even if I select the directory and click to copy on the right, it ignores the fact that the one on the left has a newer date and does not copy it at all.
So none of my changed files are being copied at all.
I copy this to two different servers, which may or may not be messing up the little "logs" that track the copied files.
How do I clear things out and make sure new stuff is copied to the right, etc. as it should be?
thanks.

the only property is the Full Path.
There is no build action, etc.

This is not helping. I'm just closing this out.
There are two important values (Build Action and Copy to Output Directory).
