I've created an upgrade for an application.  I am using ComponentReinstall in the upgrade.

After the upgrade has been run when I use Add/Remove programs to uninstall the application it runs the uninstall from the original install not the upgrade.  I have made changes to the uninstall in the upgrade and the new code is not being run on uninstall.

The uninstall still displays the old version in all dialogs that it displays.

Any help on forcing the uninstall to run the new code would be appreciated.

Possibilities:
Do not have logging enabled for the overinstall

Used a different guid and the other uninstall is probably listed lower than the one you are running if you can't see the entire add/remove programs list

Something is wrong with your dates on the setup.inx file in the disk1target (PROGRAMFILES\InstallShield Installation Information\PRODUCT_GUID) and it is not getting overwritten.
