        FileVersionInfo^ myFileVersionInfo =
            FileVersionInfo::GetVersionInfo( Environment::SystemDirectory + "\\Notepad.exe" );

        // Print the copyright notice.
        textBox1->Text = String::Concat( "Copyright notice: ", myFileVersionInfo->LegalCopyright );
    }

private void GetCopyright()
{
    // Get the file version for the notepad.
    FileVersionInfo myFileVersionInfo =
        FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(Environment.SystemDirectory + "\\Notepad.exe");

    // Print the copyright notice.
    textBox1.Text = "Copyright notice: " + myFileVersionInfo.LegalCopyright;
}

Private Sub GetCopyright()
    ' Get the file version for the notepad.
    Dim myFileVersionInfo As FileVersionInfo = _
        FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(Environment.SystemDirectory + "\Notepad.exe")
    
    ' Print the copyright notice.
