Determine FileVersion information

[trids]

Does anyone know how to determine the "File Version" information from a given file?

I need to create a listing of executable components (EXEs, DLLs, OCXs) in a specific directory, indicating each one's "File Version": as in the Version tab of the Properties dialog from right-click in Windows Explorer.

I can't find any handy utilities to achieve this, and was thinking of writing one in VB.

Hah - I found it )

Use the GetFileVersionInfo API, as described at
