Hi Marcia,

thank your for this quick answer. I'll check that later.

Just to clarify: I have somewhere in the .exe a button, which, when clicked, should send a message box, which then says: "This is Version xyz build on xx.xx.xxxx". This information is somewhere in the Project Manager. BTW: I'm using RAS MLC Project Builder v5.0.1, which can read all the required data from the Project Manager. I assume that that information is also somewhere hidden in the .exe-file and might be retrieved from inside the application.

In my FPW 2.6 Projects I had some kind of a small dbf-file. In that I stored the version number and the built date with a small program, which I run before building the .exe-file. This small file was included in to project and can easily be read within the exe.

I'm looking for something similar and as easy to use, but automatically created by the project manager.

Greetings

Hans
