Need to change VSNET_PROJ_VER number format
 

I am able to retrieve the file version of a .vdproj file I am working with, but for some reason it is set to 1.1, instead of 1.0.0.1. I am trying to do a 'Run Script' step to add the two middle digits, but I am unable to do so. Also, I tried using the commands shown below to set the macro to a variable:

Set m = vbld_TempMacros()("VSNET_PROJ_VER")
Set m = vbld_TempMacros("VSNET_PROJ_VER")
Set m = vbld_TempMacroObj()("VSNET_PROJ_VER")

All of them fail. How can I change the version number format that is being retrieved from the 'VS.NET Get Version' step? Is is not possible?

For setup projects, the VS.NET Get Version action retrieves the project's ProductVersion value. This is typically a three-segment version (i.e., 1.0.2), but the action simply retrieves the value as-is from the .vdproj file.

To change the value of the macro set by the action, you can use code like (VBScript)

Yes, thank you. That works great.

Now, your comment made me think about the value as it is set in the .vdproj file. So, How do I increment that number? If it's a file version number, then all I need to do is place the filename of the .vdproj file, and check the "Update the File version" to increment it (using a 'Make VS.NET' step), right? Right now, I am building a .sln file and I only have "Update the File version" checked. Would this update the version number on the .vdproj also? I did this once, but it seems it only updates the version number of the .dll files that are created. Would a seperate 'Make VS.NET' step be needed to just increment that number, but not build it? Thank you for your help.

Right, use a separate no-build Make VS.NET step to update the product version of the .vdproj file.
