Hi,

When I compile/build the .EXE I enter the version as the following number 4.323 (three decimals).

I am using function AGETFILEVERSION( aArray, "MyApp.EXE" ) to get the version number from the .EXE file at run-time. I use element 4 of the array. And 4th element of the array (for this example) has value of "4.323.0" Since the value is a string type I can remove the ".0" to get the version number. My question is, does VFP always add the ".0" to the number I enter in the Build? So that I can rely on my code in the future updates?

TIA
