VB6 automatically sets the File version equal to the Product version.
You specify these through the project properties dialog, Make tab, Major Minor and Revision.

  • Product version always has three parts: Major.Minor.Revision
  • File version always has four parts: Major.Minor.0.Revision. Microsoft decided to put an extra zero between Minor and Revision.

From (distant) memory this can be set by looking at the project options dialog. You can place a * into the boxes if you want the version to auto-increment.
