I think u missed what i was asking. My assembly has a version 2010.2.0.0. I
dont want to change that version. And because of this I can't use the
!(bind.FileVersion.fileId), which will update the product version number
based on the assembly version.
<Product Id="{B6870E83-42B6-409F-9309-8363A604C1F1}"
Version="!(bind.FileVersion.myfileId)" >
So i was asking if there is any other method to update the version number
automatically now that i cannot use !(bind.FileVersion.fileId).
Thanks for the "Where's Wally" stuff though.
