Text on Toolbar in exe

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Requirement: How to display the Version String (Eg V004) programmatically on Tool bar.

To know the version Number, I want to display the version string on Toolbar in Labview.

Please suggest the best option or Is it possible with Labview.

Using .net, we can add the text on Toolbar.

There is an MGI toolkit VI, called "MGI Get Executable Version.vi".

If this VI is in a built EXE, it gives you the version number.

edit: I am a bit confused, what you mean about toolbar here? I am not aware of a LabVIEW method to put text on the toolbar, where the "Run", "Free run", "Abort" buttons are located. However I would show such information on the Front panel title bar:

Without a toolkit you can do it like this (I would guess the toolkit vi is a wrap up of something similar).
