  absolutely :-)

  you can try this:

  FileVersionInfo theVersionInfo = FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(Application.ExecutablePath);

  MessageBox.Show(theVersionInfo.FileMajorPart.ToString() + "." + theVersionInfo.FileMinorPart.ToString());

  In fact I'm using this:-
  System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().
  Version.ToString();
  
  Works pretty well.

  absolutely.

  use the System.IO namespace and use the FileInfo class to get the information you want. Give the FileInfo the path and filename of your assembly/program

  use the LastWriteTime property to get the last modified time I believe.

  Example:

  FileInfo theFileInfo = new FileInfo("path\myProgram.exe");

  MessageBox.Show(theFileInfo.LastWriteTime.ToString());

  does this help

  That's excellent.
  
  In a similar vein, is it at all possible to get the AssemblyVersion number of the running application
