I see, I misunderstood you the first time. The easiest way to keep track 
of the version number in a standalone is to store it as a custom 
property somewhere and retrieve it as needed. I usually store it as a 
custom property of the main stack.

There are ways to read the plist file on an OS X app, but no good way to 
find it in a Windows or mobile app. Storing it yourself is much easier. 
The standalone builder does keep a record of the versions and other app 
settings as part of the stack properties, but those are not retained in 
the built standalone so you can't get them there.
