I use VS_VERSION_INFO to stamp my EXE with a version number. Is there a way to access that resource file's version information in code so I can write the used EXE version to the output?

Yes. The Windows API routine GetFIleVersionInfo (declared in Intel Fortran supplied module VERSION) retrieves this information from the EXE or DLL you specify. To get the path to the currently running EXE, use GetModuleFileName (KERNEL32) and pass NULL as the hModule argument.
