John,

You can't. AFAIK, that information is not included in the assembly.

Hope this helps.

How to use the .NET Reflector to determine which .NET version and assembly

Hello Nicholas Paldino [.NET/C# MVP],

Assembly version must be always recorded into assembly during compiling,
because when u starting you assembly into new host - the host should determine
which framework version to use.

Information about version could be get via unmanaged code (reading info from
PE), or using Assembly.ImageR untimeVersion

Hello John A Grandy" johnagrandy-at-yahoo-dot-com,

I recomend to use Reflector API to check this. I rekon I can't get this info
via Reflector IDE
BTW, information about FW is available in metadata via ILDASM.

When I click on a class or interface in Reflector, the bottom left of
the screen shows me the assembly and version. Is that not the required
information?

Hello Chris,

That the version of your assembly (that incrementing in each rebuild), not
the .net FW one that was used in building
