Hello,

How do I programmatically determine which version of the .NET CF is
installed on my device? I'd like to read the version (be it SP1, SP2, etc.)
and display it on a form.

Thanks,

Joe
 
You can use System.Environment.Version to display the version of the
framework. NOTE: This version will be different than the one contained in
the strong name for assemblies (ex: 1.0.2268.0 vs 1.0.5000.0)

Thanks,

Thanks! Is there a posting somewhere as to what these version numbers
correspond to (e.g. 1.x.y.z = .NET CF SP1, etc.)?
