Visual C++ program version & other properties screen details

[Amarylis]

I'm trying to change the version, file description, copyright, etc. information of my program using Visual C++ Studios 2010 Express, and I can't seem to find out where I can find these things. Anyone so happen to be able to point me to the right place?

For that sort of stuff resource files must be used.
Visual C++ Express doesn't provide a resource editor, however you can still include resource files made some other way.

Here's a template: http://codepad.org/9YCbpoc8
Customize it for your project, then save it as an .rc file. In Visual Studio, right-click "Resource files", then choose
"add existing item" and add the .rc file.

EDIT: providing template

Visual Web Developer 2010 also includes support for C# & VB.NET applications. For those application types if you right click your project in the Solution Explorer, and select Properties, you're brought to the Application tab. If you click the Assembly Information... button, you can then revise the copyright data etc. for your project. Does Visual C+ Studio 2010 express not include that option?
