Increment Version ID

I want to be able to give the customer a visual representation of a product
ID number for ever time the program compiles. Currently we save each
instance and have to reply on a very long global ID to communicate
versioning between our developers and clients. What is the best method to
increment the version ID to be viewable by the client? Thanks In advanced.

Add About form (available in New templates) and display the version
information there - this is the usual place for it

I was thinking how more to make a new ID number or version number, every
time the program complies. Like version 1.01...1.02...ect
