It depends on the file and how it was created, many .exe's and most .dll's have that information compiled in them. Its a header that is attached (you'll end up with a 'Version' tab if it is compiled in.) As far as I know there isn't any default way to obtain this information in windows. A dos tool would be needed that can be exec'd in a shell, or read the executable's header information manually.
