Re: Incrementing a build number in PerlApp

Hey Jan,

GetFileVersion() returns the file version, which is not the 
ProductVersion that I think everybody uses (including Jenda).

If I am to look at the Version tab on the exe I generated, I see Product 
Version listed under 'Other version information'. How can we read this info?
