A big gotcha

I installed the "Microsoft Biztalk 2010 Accelerator for SWIFT" (A4SWIFT) and the "Microsoft Biztalk Accelerator for SWIFT 2010 Message Pack" on my computer. In my work I need to research the SWIFT schemas and such. I was trying to open up the SWIFT header schema that is inside the Microsoft.Solutions.FinancialServices.SWIFT.RuntimeSchemas assembly. However I keep getting this error: Could not load type 'Microsoft.Solutions.FinancialServices.SWIFT.RuntimeSchemas.HeaderSchema' from assembly 'Microsoft.Solutions.FinancialServices.SWIFT.RuntimeSchemas, Version=3.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'. The problem is that there are two assemblies with the same file name and version number! The one creating the error is from A4SWIFT. The correct one is in the message pack directory. Note that the namespace name has different: A4SWIFT: Microsoft.Solutions.FinancialServices.SWIFT.RuntimeSchemas.HeaderSchema A4SWIFT Message Pack: SWIFTSchemas.SWIFTHeader Confusing as hell. No idea why they left an obsolete assembly around.
