Have you tried a "Rebuild all"?

Yes I have tried But no success.. I want to add an event in existing project and this project was made in VC 6.

That is an important information. Then you might have other problems too. Porting VC6 applications to recent VS versions can be a pain.

I suggest to port the application first to VS 2010 before adding anything new.

The project is already migrated to VS 2010 and we are using the Com.dll effectively built in VS 2010, but we need to add few new methods and event in the existing project, where we are not able to get success.

It is difficult to solve this without seeing the project.

I have one last tip:
Check the resource.h file. Ensure especially that the next default values for new objects (should be at the end) may not result in generating existing IDs. If necessary edit the file.
