I have a C# Deployment Project, for which I would like to change the display during the installation version of the X.X.Xa (marked with the letter will be the next version of the test).

For other projects can be done by attribute "AssemblyInformationalVersionAttribute" in "AssemblyInfo.cs". Unfortunately, the Delployment Project does not have the possibility to add the file, and version numbering assumptions there can be only numeric values​​.

Is it possible to somehow add the letter described the version of the installer, so that when you install the correct version to appear?

    You should be able to use the Windows Installer ProductVersion property for this.Check this answer of Andy Hopper http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3222840/how-to-show-application-version-in-vs-net-deployment-project#comment3329425_3222990 – hridya pv Dec 07 '12 at 08:24
  • Ok. I found the solution. You can not add letters to the version number, but you can just change the name of the application to the `MyApplication v.X.X.Xa` and changing the guid cause, it will be seen as a different version than the `X.X.X`. Unfortunately, in the Add / Remove Programs versions of both applications are presented as `X.X.X` Is there a way that appeared `X.X.Xa` version number? – Emil J Dec 07 '12 at 10:31
