Hi All,

What do I use in order to extract the File Version or Product Version of a 
program.

I have for instance, 4 different version of Opera , all have an executable 
called Opera.exe,
all of course have different file version numbers (e.g. 7401  (Beta 1)) and 
Product Version (8.00)

I need these different versions so I can make sure I run the correct 
program.
Opera for instance only has one entry in 
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\
even though I have multiple versions installed. Unless I am looking in the 
wrong place?

Gav...
