Programmatically retrieving AssemblyVersion

[MattB]

I searched around a little and I don;t see how I can get the
AssemblyVersion of the main assembly of my asp.net 1.1 application. Can
anyone point me to an example? I want to be able to display this in the
application. Thanks!

Assembly asm = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
string version= asm.GetName().Version.ToString();

Hi Matt,

We do this at work, in our template, at the bottom of our web pages the
application version and our core library version are displayed.

This article might well help you - alas I dont have acces right now to the
code we use - but it should be similar..

string version= asm.GetName().Version.ToString();

Thanks (and to you too Rob). That was exactly what I needed!
