Name

Application.ProductVersion Property

Class

System.Windows.Forms.Application

Syntax

Application.ProductVersion(  )

Return Value

A String containing the product version of the application

Description

Gets the product version of the application. This is a read-only property. The product version typically has the form:

MajorVersionNumber.MinorVersionNumber.BuildNumber.PrivatePartNumber

Its default value is "1.0.*", which indicates that Visual Studio maintains default build and revision numbers.

The value of the ProductVersion property can be defined by including the <AssemblyVersion> attribute in the application’s AssemblyInfo file. Its syntax is:

<Assembly: AssemblyVersion("maj.min.bld.rev")>

where maj is the major version number, min is the minor version number, bld is the build number, and rev is the revision number.

VB .NET/VB 6 Differences

The ProductVersion property in the .NET Framework corresponds to the App.Major, App.Minor, and App.Revision properties in VB 6.
