Application Meta Data

We can see many applications having Meta Data like Company, File Version, Internal Name, Language, Original File Name, Product Name, Product Version, Description, Copyright etc when we right click and see the properties.
I wish to enter these meta data in HMG applications.
Are these facilities already in place?

Hi,
Yes, it is.
Simply add/adapt to your application.
RC file the following lines:
1 VERSIONINFO
FILEVERSION 1,0,0,0
PRODUCTVERSION 1,0,0,0
FILEOS 0x4
FILETYPE 0x1
{
BLOCK "StringFileInfo"
{
BLOCK "040904b0"
{
VALUE "FileDescription", "Application Description\000"
VALUE "FileVersion", "1.0.0.0"
VALUE "InternalName", "Application Name\000"
VALUE "LegalCopyright", "My Copyright\000"
VALUE "LegalTrademarks", "Harbour"
VALUE "OriginalFilename", "AppName.exe"
VALUE "CompanyName", ""
VALUE "ProductName", "MiniGUI Utility"
VALUE "ProductVersion", "1.0.0.0"
VALUE "Comments", "Created by author\000"
}
}
BLOCK "VarFileInfo"
{
VALUE "Translation", 0x0409 0x04B0
}
}
and take a look for changes of the properties at the right mouse click
