>Does anyone know how to get the compiled executables version number and other headings set in the BUILD?
Everyone's answer so far seems to be telling you how to obtain version information from other programs, or VFP's version information. The way I read your question, you're asking how to build some version information into the exe you're creating. Is that correct?
If that's what you're after, you have to have VFP 5 or 6, as far as I know. (Someone will jump in if I'm wrong! :) If you
have VFP 5 or 6 it's fairly simple. When you build the EXE, there's a "Version..." button on the build dialog (only enabled if you have the Build Executable option selected). If you click on that button you get to another dialog which allows you to enter version information which will be built into your exe.
