Dean,

You can retrieve the "publish version" number from the Project Settings using this:

If (System.Deploym ent.Application .ApplicationDep loyment.IsNetwo rkDeployed) Then
Dim verDeployed As System.Version = My.Application. Deployment.Curr entVersion
End If

To display published(netwo rk deployed) or assembly version:

' test if network deployed
Dim verDeployed As System.Version
Dim strVerDeployed As String
If (System.Deploym ent.Application .ApplicationDep loyment.IsNetwo rkDeployed) Then
verdeployed = My.Application. Deployment.Curr entVersion
strVerDeployed = verDeployed.ToS tring
Else ' or if command line execution
Dim asmThis As System.Reflecti on.Assembly = System.Reflecti on.Assembly.Loa d("CADView")
Dim asnThis As System.Reflecti on.AssemblyName = asmThis.GetName ()
verDeployed = asnThis.Version
strVerDeployed = verDeployed.ToS tring
