Is there any way to force my asp.net application to load the assembly from local bin directory since there is another older version of the assembly with the same name in the gac?

I can't delete the gac version since other applications are using it and I am facing some difficulties when adding the newer version to the gac.

I found it

To force your application to read from local bin directory you have to remove signing from your assembly and then the application will load the assembly from bin.
