Getting at the VS_VERSION_INFO

Programmatically I need to get to the VS_VERSION_INFO of a module.
Specifically I need to get the AssemblyFileVersion of the current
assembly, that looks to be the FileVersion of the VS_VERSION_INFO. How
does one do that in .Net 2.0?

This seems to work for now:

Assembly currentAssembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
foreach (object o in
currentAssembly.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(Assembl yFileVersionAttribute),
false))
{
AssemblyFileVersionAttribute afv = o as
AssemblyFileVersionAttribute;
if (afv != null)
return afv.Version;
}

You can use the FileVersionInfo class.
