The following example calls GetVersionInfo to get the FileVersionInfo for the Notepad. Then it prints the special build information in a text box. This code assumes textBox1 has been instantiated.

private:
    void GetSpecialBuild()
    {
        // Get the file version for the notepad.
        FileVersionInfo^ myFileVersionInfo =
            FileVersionInfo::GetVersionInfo( Environment::SystemDirectory + "\\Notepad.exe" );

        // Print the special build information.
        textBox1->Text = String::Concat( "Special build information: ", myFileVersionInfo->SpecialBuild );
    }

private void GetSpecialBuild()
{
    // Get the file version for the notepad.
    FileVersionInfo myFileVersionInfo =
        FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(Environment.SystemDirectory + "\\Notepad.exe");

    // Print the special build information.
    textBox1.Text = "Special build information: " + myFileVersionInfo.SpecialBuild;
}

Private Sub GetSpecialBuild()
    ' Get the file version for the notepad.
    Dim myFileVersionInfo As FileVersionInfo = _
        FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(Environment.SystemDirectory + "\Notepad.exe")
    
    ' Print the special build information.
    textBox1.Text = "Special build information: " & myFileVersionInfo.SpecialBuild
End Sub
