    How to set fileversion, company name etc


    Help needed...

    I am trying to set some file properties in VC++ but donīt no where to do
    it.

    In Visual Basic i can use the project properties to set company name, copyright
    text, version etc. When right clicking om my file i get a tab called version
    with theese properties.

    How can this be done in Visual C++ (6.0) ??

    I have tried to use the project-settings-linker page to enter the major and
    minor version but still the same result.

    Thanks
    Michael

    Try:
    ResourceView Pane(the tab that's between ClassView and File View),
    Version, VS_VERSION_INFO
    Hope this helps.

    Probably what you are looking for is the Version Resources. In a window application
    just go to Resources::Version::VS_VERSION_INFO.

    For a console application you can either add resources or use the linker/compiler
    directives.
