Hello,

i have an asp.net application which i have deployed
over the internet now 10 clients are using my application
for 5 clients i need to give access to Patients ASSEMBLY VERSION 1.0

Without further details it's difficult to give the best solution, but two
things come into mind.

Firstly, your application probably has some kind of logon function.
Depending on the user (or maybe their IP addresses?), manually load the
correct assembly version.

However, this can lead to trouble, and thus it would probably be a better
option to upgrade all users to the 1.1 version of your assembly. What is the
reason why those five need to use the older version?

Secondly, you could also pass in some "compatibil ity flag" to your 1.1
version assembly to so that it could then execute certain things the same
way as 1.0 version did. This is probably the route I would go.

Hope this helps!
