SYMPTOMS
When making an executable file using the Visual Basic command-line argument
/make or /m, the Revision Version Number is incremented only the first time
even though Auto Increment was checked in the Project Properties dialog box
before the project was saved.
RESOLUTION
To maintain accurate versioning in your applications, compile the
executable file via the Visual Basic Integrated Development Environment
(IDE).
STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
