Determine currently loaded version of System.Xml.dll and Mscorlib.dll ?

[MC]

Is there an easy way for a .NET application to determine the version of
Mscorlib.dll and System.Xml.dll that is is actually using?

Given that System.Xml.dll has been revised several times (within .NET 2.0),
I'm wanting to find out if my program is running in an up-to-date
environment.

Thanks.

Use Assembly.GetAss embly to get a reference to the assembly

Thanks, Ignacio. Worked like a charm. In detail, here's how I did it, in
case anyone else wonders:

Assembly a = Assembly.GetAss embly(typeof(Co nsole));
Console.WriteLi ne("Mscorlib.dl l information:");
Console.WriteLi ne(a.ImageRunti meVersion);
Console.WriteLi ne(a.CodeBase);

/* Assembly */ a = Assembly.GetAss embly(typeof(Xm lSerializer));
Console.WriteLi ne("System.Xml. dll information:");
Console.WriteLi ne(a.ImageRunti meVersion);
Console.WriteLi ne(a.CodeBase);
