How to Get File Properties of DLLs

Keywords: 	  FileVerInfo

---

Question:

Is there any way to retrieve the properties of a .DLL such as those values found on the Version tab of the properties window (version, description, file version, etc.)? I'm trying to determine the encryption level supported for a particular installed workstation within a Winbatch and Microsoft reports that to determine the cipher strength, you need to view the description of the SCHANNEL.DLL from the Properties/Version tab.

Answer:

The FileVerInfo function should allow you access to that information.
