I have a VBScript that checks for the existance of a file in a directory on a remote machine. I am looking to retrieve the "Product Version" for said file (NOT "File Version"), but I can't seem to figure out how to do that in VBScript.

I'm currently using Scripting.FileSystemObject to check for the existence of the file.

Thanks much.
