file version attribute

[sdlangers]

Hi,

Does anyone know how to get the file version from the properties of an exe file in .net?

e.g. if you right click on an exe and click properties and then click the version tab, the exes version number is displayed

i need a way in code to be able to get this version number

thanks

Try using System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.

Dim myFileVersionInfo As FileVersionInfo = FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo("c:\SomeFile.txt")
