Hello, I read MSI and Platform SDK but haven't found a clean answer for the difference between FILEVERSION vs. FileVersion vs. PRODUCTVERSION vs. ProductVersion.
A similar question was raised in the MSI newsgroup, but no exact answer was provided: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.platformsdk.msi/browse_frm/t hread/997708b0a2805cf7/11f526e51912fdf2 The real question behind is how Windows Installer obtains file version information during files copying. The MSI SDK's "File Versioning Rules" article does no clearly explains what is the "file version" and whether product version fields are taken into consideration while computing file version. I'm going to share some components from an existing product with a new product that have a different number and I wonder whether I can have separate versioning for file versions and product versions?
