Re: VS_VERSION_INFO static ctrl

Thanks Giovanni, worked like a charm, though I changed the
SetVersionString function to no args. I have a couple of
questions if you would be so kind. See code and comments
below. Questions are at very bottom in the OnInitDialog.

#include .....others.....
#include "AppVer.h" // has version string data thanks
                                // to David Webber

// CAboutDlg dialog used for App About

class CAboutDlg : public CDialog
 {
   private:
    CString m_strVersion;
   public:
    void SetVersionString( );
    CAboutDlg( );

// Dialog Data
//{{AFX_DATA(CAboutDlg)
  enum { IDD = IDD_ABOUTBOX };
  CStatic m_CtrlStaticCr;
  CStatic m_CtrlStaticVer;
 //}}AFX_DATA

 // ClassWizard generated virtual function overrides

  virtual void DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX);
 //}}AFX_VIRTUAL

// Implementation

 //{{AFX_MSG(CAboutDlg)
  virtual BOOL OnInitDialog( );

 DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP( )
};
      /// ** suggested SetVersion function, but no args ** //
void CAboutDlg::SetVersionString( )
 {
   m_strVersion.Format( _T(" version %d.%d.%d.%d"),
     VERMAJ, VERMIN, VERFIX, BUILDNUMBER );
 }

----constructor, nothing happening here

void CAboutDlg::DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX)
{
 CDialog::DoDataExchange(pDX);
 //{{AFX_DATA_MAP(CAboutDlg)
 DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_STATICcr, m_CtrlStaticCr);
 DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_STATICver, m_CtrlStaticVer);
 //}}AFX_DATA_MAP

   CAboutDlg aboutDlg;
   aboutDlg.DoModal( );

   return TRUE; // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control
