How to get app build for display on main form?

Can't seem to find current build number anywhere at runtime.
Application.productversion gives me a build number-like string that has no
relation to anything I know about.

That would be it. It is not what most expect to see. It is based on a
timestamp.

If you want to see 1.0.0.1 or something, you'll have to manually increment
it yourself in the the AssemblyInfo.vb file.

Greg, thanks. But what about the version# that is in the setup project, is
that not available as a property?

Not sure. I think that version number is purely to version the installer
code itself.

Setup projects are not my forte. I just use XCOPY. :^)
