Assembly reference issue

Hi,

I am writing a C# plugin for a third party tool. Multiple versions of
the same tool can be installed on the client machine at any given
time.
Version 6 of this tool is managed code while version 5 is not.
The plugin is built on version 6 of the tool.
So, when the plugin is installed on a machine that has only version 6
of the tool, it works fine. As expected, it doesnt work if only
version 5 is installed.
The problem is, it is not working if both version 5 and 6 are
installed. How can I tell my plugin to use the file from version 6 of
the tool?

Regards,
Shilpa

Can you provide detail on what the third party tool is ? My best guess
is it is a COM component, just confirming
