ActiveX Control - Cabinet download issue

[kennykjam]

I'm having an issue with Microsofts Cabinet file methods for downloading and installing ActiveX controls and related files. My control has two dependant DLL's and these DLL's require a .dat and a .ini file to run. However the .dat and .ini files do not have any version numbers associated with them to control whether they are downloaded or not. The default behaviour seems to be that if the files can be found somewhere on your path, they are not downloaded. This is turning into a major issue as we cannot avoid having other versions of these files present on the path. Does anyone know of a method to force the download of non versioned files to the occache directory. I've tried everything I can think of such as
FileVersion=-1,-1,-1,-1. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

This is my .inf file which I use to create the Cabinet File

Change the version control of the OCX build in VB. This issue can be due to version conflict.
