Changing the version number of a compiled .NET DLL



I have a DLL which is built first by compiling a JavaScript file with the
JSC.exe JavaScript compiler, and then linked with a strong name keyfile
using ILMerge. This all works well, except that the resulting DLL has a
version number of "0.0.0.0". Try as I might, I have been unable to modify
this.

So my question is, is there any way to modify this version number for an
already compiled DLL? It's just the "file version" that I wish to change
(the one that is displayed in the Properties window for the file) so that
when we look at the file on disk we can identify which build we're actually
looking at.

Many thanks to anyone that can assist,
