Does my MFC application have access to its own VS_VERSION_INFO resource, or
does it have to use GetFileVersionInfo(), like it would have to for any other
file?

Yes, it have to use GetFileVersionInfo(), like it would have to for any
other file.

I just use GetFileVersionInfo() to get it. You could just use PJ's class to
get the info:

Thanks, Victor. I was hoping that since the compiler got it, that I wouldn't
need to go through the gymnastics of supplying the path to my executable and
asking the OS to read it. Oh well.
