I have seen the response to this issue previously in this list, but basically
IIRC the version needs to be available at compile time.  The binder writes a
bind variable after the linker completes, so that information is not
available when it is needed.

Get the Wix source download and look at WixBuilds.version.targets in the
tools folder (IIRC) for an example of writing the version string to a wxi
file.  Then use that variable rather than a bind variable in your bundle
and/or msi projects.
