In the Visual Studio 2008 IDE, the properties page allows you to access the version. However, for executables, there appears to be two versions:

Under the Publish tab, there is a publish version with a flag to auto increment.

Under the Applications Tab (Assembly Info...) there is an assembly and file version - this appears to change the AssemblyInfo.cs file.

My question is, what is the difference between the two versions and what are the implications of setting each?
