Question Com-visible dll don't show version number in Windows Explorer

[ms_bhandari]

Hello,

I have created a com dll in vb 2005 and used in vb6. It's working fine.

I have a question why Windows Explorer does not show it’s version number? I have properly set both the Assembly version and File version.

Again I did create a test com dll - windows explorer does show it's version number properly.

I am looking for the difference. But if anybody already hit this issue - please let me know.

Thanks.

Madhu

Hi, what version Windows are you using? It seems that Windows Vista and Windows 7 do not show the Assembly version. They show the File and Product versions ok.

Kingkong, thanks for your response.

I am using Windows-XP. As I said - it is working for all other .Net dlls including the com-visible. Just this one dll doesn't show version.

And when I registered this dll to windows assembly - it does show the version in assembly folder.
