<@QueenDee> When you compile a COM control, it gets given a unique ID
<@QueenDee> when something uses that, it uses that unique ID
<@QueenDee> so, when you change the control, you need it to keep that same
            ID so you dont need to recompile everything that uses it
<@QueenDee> if you DONT have compatibility set, it will be different each
            time
<@QueenDee> If you do, it will make sure your objects and interfaces use
            the same ID as those in the compatible file
