Runtime Version & Copyright Information

[skol45uk]

Is there a simple way of asking my Application what Version number, Copyright statement, etc. information it was built with?

Or do I need to revert to Win32 calls?

I want to add an About tab to a tab control on a touch-panel computer.

Thanks

Hi skol45uk,

I am an Applications Engineer at National Instruments. As I understand, you have built a LabVIEW application i.e. an executable and want to determine what version it was built with. If this is your query then the link below should help you.

Hope this helps. Thanks and have a great day!

look for ..\LabVIEW xxxx\vi.lib\Platform\fileVersionInfo.llb\FileVersionInfo.vi   xxxx is your LabVIEW version. This is in 2011 and 2012, don't know about earlier or later versions.  You will get different info, depending on whether you are in Dev mode or an EXE.
