Read Application Version Automatically

Is there any mechanism in AI to grab the version number from an EXE when it builds the MSI ?

I'm coming from InnoSetup, which will automatically read the product version from the EXE when it builds the setup, which saves me the trouble of having to keep the version the installer displays in-sync with the version of the EXE.

Hi,

Currently Advanced Installer doesn't support this. However, we have this feature on our TODO list and it will be available in a future version.
