Class

System.Windows.Forms.Application

Syntax

Dim result As String = Application.ProductName

Description

The ProductName property gets the product name of the application as recorded in the assembly. It is set using the <AssemblyProduct> attribute of the assembly, which normally appears in the AssemblyInfo.vb file. Its syntax is:

<Assembly: AssemblyProduct("product")>

where product is the product name. This is a read-only property.

Version Differences

• This property corresponds to the App.ProductName property in VB 6.

• Visual Basic 2005 includes the My.Application.Info.ProductName property, which provides similar functionality.
