How do I find Assembly Version of Calling Program?

I am using C# for this application.

I have a DLL that gets included within my application. From this DLL, I need to find the Assembly Version of the main program in which this DLL is included.

System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version.ToString() does not return what I want. This returns the Assembly version of the DLL, not the main program.

How do I get the version information from the main program?

System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().GetName().Version.ToString()

is the right one.
