    In the version information for my app there's stuff like CompanyName FileDescription FileVersion InternalName ... SpecialBuild When my app starts I want to see what the value of SpecialBuild is. Can anybody give any guidance? Thanks Chris

      Look for articles on the API routine "VerQueryValue". It isn't easy, but it isn't hard. Just a little goofy. Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

          Type "Version Information" in the index tab in MSDN and you will find functions such as GetFileVersionInfo. Cheers, Fredrik
