Hi Wolfgang,
I have developed a demo for you:
http://www.lindersoft.com/projects/A...entVersion.zip
The non-elevated running helper application ("increment.exe") is called from the main project and auto increments the build number when you compile a project. The last build number is stored in the "build.txt" ASCII text file.
See attached screenshots.
1. See the Lines 16-18 in the "setup_version_build_demo.sbp" project.
2. Set the "File Version" entry field in the project (General Information -> Version Resource).
3. Compile your project.
Does this help?
Friedrich
