In the PB project file you can designate, amongst other things, a Product version and a File version.  How to I get this information from within PB?  I want to get the info from the exe I built for display on a 'Help - About' type window.

I've tried using OLE to the shell.application, but the GetDetailsOf method doesn't seem to have all of it (# 298 shows product version for the executable).  What about the Product version and file version for the section "Executable version used by installer"?

Thanks

Have a look at n_osversion by Roland Smith: https://www.topwizprogramming.com/freecode_osversion.html

For example, I'm getting the fileinfo like this:

n_osversion ln_osver
ls_pbvmname = ln_osver.of_PBVMName()
If ln_osver.of_GetFileVersionInfo(ls_pbvmname) Then
	ls_FixedFileVersion = trim(ln_osver.fixedFileVersion)
	if Integer(left(ls_FixedFileVersion, 2)) >= 17 then
		// Appeon 2017 or higher, we use this in u_dw for example.
		ib_Appeon = TRUE
	end if
end if

Hope it helps.

regards

I think this might be what you're looking for, unless it was the PB version that Miguel posted.
