Unable to uncheck Version Info in Delphi 2007 Project

The following link pretty much describes the problem I have.

In a Dunit project and exe version info is disabled, how do I get it back?

The difference is that in my case I'm using Delphi 2007, I have the "Include version information in project" checked and can't uncheck it, and I do have the {$R *.res} in my project file. I'm not sure what else could be the problem.

Here's the list of files I got for the package:

01/02/2014  05:41 PM             7,338 CnvBpl.dpk
01/03/2014  12:26 PM            60,643 CnvBpl.dproj
01/02/2014  05:53 PM                62 CnvBpl.dproj.local
01/02/2014  06:55 PM           368,559 CnvBpl.drc
01/02/2014  05:55 PM            10,938 CnvBpl.dsk
01/02/2014  05:28 PM             3,180 CnvBpl.res
12/26/2013  11:16 AM               710 CnvBpl.txt
01/02/2014  05:41 PM            10,937 CnvBpl.~dsk

Here's the content of the package:

package CnvBpl;

{$R *.res}
{$ALIGN 8}
{$ASSERTIONS ON}
.....

There's no other reference to a .res file in the .dpr.

I also deleted the .res file and let delphi recreate it but I still get the checkbox disabled.

Edited 1/6/2014

I manually modified the .dproj file to have this:

...Package_Options><VersionInfo><VersionInfo Name="IncludeVerInfo">False</VersionInfo><VersionInfo Name="AutoIncBuild">False</VersionInfo>...

When I open the package again with Delphi IDE it still shows the check box grayed out and enabled. If I make another change to the project and save it, it saves the setting back as True in the .dproj file.

If you only want to disable version info, you can do that by editing the dproj file. But I have no idea, why the ide won't let you do that. Usually it's because the {*.res} entry is missing, but that apparently isn't the case.
