Global Extension Template: Add Compile Date/Time to version

Previous  Top  Next  


This template makes it possible for you to add the compile date and time to the version resources that are linked into the application.  This makes it very easy to see exactly when a DLL or EXE was compiled to narrow down problems with client software.
