Auto Build number updates for my compilted files

Hi,

I have a string that I generate at the build time. I want this "string" to be embeded in each binary that is being created how can i achive that using Visual Build Pro 6?

TIA

It depends on the development tool you're using, but this is typically done by storing a value in the executable's version info (you can use the Properties tab of the VBP actions for VC6, VS.NET, VS 2005, Delphi, etc. to set the value) and reading that value for display in the GUI of your application.

Hi There,

I tried the Properties Tab for VS2005 and entered my %va% in it. But upon generating the binary I still did not see the value of %Var% embeded in the Version properties of the Binary created?

Any suggesation? or there is some flag that i need to set within Visual Build?

TIA
