I've got a windows service I created with VC++.NET. It was compiled with
a version number in the assemblyinfo.cpp. When I look at the properties
for the EXE, I don't see the version number (or even the version tab).

Ideas?

Hi Stephen,

You need to add a real version resource (with the resource editor). The
assembly version (which you set using the attributes in
assemblyinfo.cpp) and the file version are not the same.
