Vista - Visual Basic 2008 Autoincrement Build Number

Hi,

how do I configure my VB projects in VS 2008 that they automatically
increment the build number as c# project do?

Thanks in advance for any hint

If it's anything like C# you should be able to open the AssemblyInfo.vb file
that's in the project and change the version numbers to an asterisk.

<assembly: Version("1.0.*")>

Forgive me if my VB is incorrect, I'm a bit rusty with it.

Hi,

no this does not work for vb 2008. Any thoughts?

Hello Adrian,
Works for me.

What version *is* being generated ?

Can you set the version to a hard coded value (say "2.5.3.9") rather than
an auto increment?

Does this affect the resultant dll?

Are you sure you're checking the dll that's being built.

Perhaps a configuration change has changed the build directory and you are
looking at an old version? (Check the modified date)

Is your Assemblyinfo.vb set to something other than "compile"?

Just a few thoughts... Jeff's solution should be correct

Hi,

it works with c#, but not with vb.

Or did anybody else figured this out for vb 2008?

Thanks

Right click on the project in the solution explorer window, then goto the
compile tag, now click on advancd compile options.

Should be able to modify there.
