Can I get the Build version of my app? Same as in VB6 I'd do App.Revision ...

Thanks

Yes, it is stored under

Application.ProductVersion


If you wish to retrieve just the build, use the following code:

Dim Version As New Version(Application.ProductVersion)

Version.Build 'Gets the applications build number

Thanks for replying.

Maybe its me being thick but I honestly cant see a "ProductVersion" property under the Application object ...

I'm using ASP.NET btw ...

Will it be the same as it is in a Windows App?
Dim ainfo As New AssemblyInfo()

MessageBox.Show(String.Format("Version {0}", ainfo.Version), "Version", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information)

Doesnt appear to be. I can't actually get to the AssemblyInfo member.

ASP.NET produces a DLL so version info would be available right? not on a wild goose chase here :ehh:

Thanks anyway

If you are using a asp.net web project, there will be an Assembly.vb
module included in the project. If you use the code it will be
accessable.

ok, I see the class/module whatever it is and the AssemblyBuildInfo thingy in it.

Imagine for a second, you are talking to someone who's been doing vb6 for ever and is new to ASP.NET :-))))

How do I 'use' the thing? Creating a new instance just doesnt seem to be an option
