MATLAB: Is the version number in the DEPLOYTOOL for building .NET components grayed out

MATLAB Builder NE

When I create a project for .NET component in the DEPLOYTOOL in MATLAB 7.6 (R2008a) or MATLAB 7.8 (R2009a) and go to "Settings…", the pulldown menus for the major and minor numbers next to the line "Version:" are grayed out.
When I click the Help button on the Settings dialog box, I read:
Specify component version number (valid only for MATLAB Builder NE and MATLAB Builder EX projects).

Best Answer

The version numbers apply only to components built through the MATLAB Builder EX and the Generic COM components built through the MATLAB Builder NE. It does not apply to .NET components built through the MATLAB Builder NE.
