Hey everyone,
I know this is probably a dumb question, but how do I get the version
(major, minor, etc) of my application in VB.NET?

I've tried creating a Version object, but everytime I try to get data from
it, I get a System.NullReferenceException error.

Thanks for the help,

Be aware that some of Application functions do not work correctly in
Beta 1 (from the top of my head, I don't know if this is one of them).

Application is a WinForms class. Does it works in Console applications?

If you reference WinForms, it should. But obviously, you wouldn't want
to have to reference the entire WinForms blob just to be able to
display "1.0.0.0". Personally, I think its a bad design decision to
put it there.

I think it's bad design too.

This works without referencing WinForms:
Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version.ToString()
