Hello ,
 
Im looking for a way to create a checksum of a build.  When I build my project now it creates a dll, which I compute a MD5 checksum hash for.  Now if I build that same project sometime later w/o any code changes the checksum is different.  I assume that is b/c they two dlls were created at different times.   
 
WIth that said, is there a way I can get the same checksum hash each time? 
 
More backgroud:
I am the build guy for our team, we use TFS and have a couple of branches (Release, Integration, Dev) what Id like to do is have a build checksum, therefore when we have a build in Dev that is ready to be moved to Int for testing.  I can rebuild the build on the int branch and compare the checksums to make sure the two builds are same.
 
Any and all tips, comments and help would be great
 
Thanks a million in advance.
