>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 the project manager, click on build and there's the Version button which gets you another dialog where you can set autoincrement version (which I presume you already somehow do using your project builder).
Here's how I output the version number in my error logger:
N=Astackinfo(aStk)
IF LOWER(JUSTEXT(aStk[1,2]))="exe"
AGETFILEVERSION(aa,aStk[1,2])
\ Build: <<aa[4]>>
RELEASE aa
