Reading back Application Version

Hi All,

I want to set the version number of my application and show it in my form. Going through some forums, I read that I had to implement 'Version' in my resource file, so that's what I did. But... after setting the version in the resourcefile to 0.0.0.99 and reading it back with Application::get_ProductVersion I still get 1.0.0.0 returned.
Also setting the version in the project properties->Linker->General to version 0.0.0.99 keeps giving me version number 1.0.0.0.

What am I doing wrong. I'm using in VS2003 ?

Thanks in advance.

Watch out for more entries that say Version in your *.rc file and change them all to the Version you want. That works for VC++ 6 maybe it still works in the newer versions.
