    Hmm

    No Compatibility: implies that with every compilation of the component, you end up with a new entry in the windows
    registry i.e if you go to Project then References you would
    see a new entry every time you recompile your component
    for any slight changes

    Project Compatibility - is what you check off when developing so that the original entry keeps being overwritten for subsequent compilations

    Binary Compatibility: Once you're ready to ship the component to the users and you're ecstatic that everything works, you set that.... Now any changes you made after that
    are ok UNLESS you change the methods or properties of the
    component in which case you would have to recompile all the clients that talk to this component

    Getting ready for the exam, R U?
