Application versioning in VB.NET 2003

Ok, this is going to sound like a silly one, but:

In VB6 there was the app object, which had things like the application's
version information. I found the equivalent VB.NET object, the Application
object. What I can't find is where in the IDE you get to set the version
number on a build. In VB6 it was off the project properties pages, but I
checked that in VB.NET and I don't see it. Can someone direct me to where it
is?

Hi,

It is in the assemblyinfo.vb file.

' Version information for an assembly consists of the following four values:

'

' Major Version

' Minor Version

' Build Number

' Revision

'

' You can specify all the values or you can default the Build and Revision
Numbers

' by using the '*' as shown below:

<Assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")>
