title: How do I change an EXE or DLL version number from the command line?
body: <p>I need to build an old VB6 application with a version number where the 4th digit is greater than 9999, for example, version <code>1.2.0.10003</code>.  VB6 won't let you do this; the build fails. </p>
  
  <p>The current workaround is to build version <code>1.2.0.9999</code> and then manually edit the file in Visual Studio to insert the correct version.  There must be a better way.  Is there a command-line tool that allows you to modify the version number fields of an EXE or DLL?  Preferably a way that allows you to edit specific version number fields individually.</p>
