Hi there!
Quick question to all you experts out there on something that is quite simple I'm sure.
Is there a new way in VS.net 2008 to auto increment version numbers when you build the vb.net or C# project.
In vs.net 2005, you could view the project properties, click the 'Assembly information' button and you'd see 'Assembly version' and 'File Version' boxes - this is where you can manually place the version number. However, by putting an asterisk in either the third or forth text box, then the build or revision number would autoincrement.
All well and good, but when I try to do this in 2008, I get a message saying 'A wildcard is not allowed in this field'
Gah! I'm guessing there's some other super easy and more effient way to do it in 2008, but I've been searching Google all afternoon and can't find it.
Any ideas?
Richard.
